Ingredients
- 180 g Pears, raw
- 200 g Wine, red
- 35 g Sugar
- 1 g Cinnamon
- 0.2 g Cloves
- 2 g Lemon zest
Method
- Peel the pears, leaving the stalks on, and stand them upright in a small saucepan just wide enough to hold them.
- Pour in the red wine and add the sugar, cinnamon stick, clove and lemon zest.
- Bring gently to a simmer, then cover and poach for 20-25 minutes, turning the pears now and then, until tender when pierced with a knife but still holding their shape.
- Lift the pears out into a serving dish.
- Boil the poaching liquid hard for 8-10 minutes until reduced to a light syrup.
- Strain the warm syrup over the pears and chill for at least 1 hour; the pears will deepen to a rich burgundy colour as they sit. Serve cold, spooning over the syrup.
