Anyway, for those of you who need a guilt free dessert, poached pears to the rescue. And it's quite simple too.
You need:
- 2 pears
- 1 cup dry red wine
- 1/2 cup orange juice
- 1/4 cup sugar (adjust according to taste)
- A small stick of cinnamon
How to:
- Take a deep pan and add the wine, sugar, orange juice and cinnamon.
- Bring to a boil and then simmer for 2-3 minutes
- Peel the pears without removing the step
- Remove some portion from the bottom to make it flat so that the pear can stand
- Put the pears in the simmer liquid. Cover and cook till the pears are cooked but firm. Turn the pears from time to time to ensure even cooking
- When cooked, remove from flame and let the pears rest in the liquid. When cool, put in the fridge to chill.
- Before serving, bring the pear to room temperature, thicken the sauce on a flame if needed. Serve the pear with a spoonful of the sauce.
