Ingredients
- 2 pears ripe but firm
- 1 teaspoon butter
- 1 teaspoon maple syrup (or honey)
To serve (optional)
- 2 coops vanilla ice cream
- 1 pinch ground nutmeg
Instructions
- Core the pears and slice thickly.
- Add the butter, maple syrup and salt to the skillet and allow it to melt, then add the pear slices.
- Let it cook and bubble until the pears turn golden and the syrup reduces, turning once.
- When the pear slices are golden and caramelised, divide onto serving plates and top with a scoop of ice cream and pinch of ground nutmeg.
Notes
- Use a sharp knife when slicing the pears to ensure even, clean slices.
- Make sure the slices are thick enough so they don't break down too quickly in the pan.
- Cook in batches if necessary, adding a little more butter and syrup if required.
- If your pears are ripe and releasing juice as you slice them, that's okay! The added syrup will help to enhance their flavor.
- The best type of pears to use for this recipe are Bosc pears as they are more firm and hold their shape well when cooked.
