by: Lady Seanna |
600ml Gloucestershire, Herefordshire
and Worcestershire Cider or Perry
125g (5oz) apricot jam
55g (2oz) brown sugar |
good pinch ground ginger
4 firm cooking pears
flaked almonds, toasted (optional) |

the cider into a pan with the jam, sugar and ground ginger.
Bring to the boil and simmer for a few minutes. Stir well. Peel,
quarter and core the pears and drop at once into the sauce to
prevent discolouration. Put the lid on the pan and simmer gently
for at least 30 minutes or until the pears are soft. Remove the
cooked pears and reduce the sauce to about half by rapid boiling.
Pour over the pears and leave until cold. Sprinkle with the
toasted almonds and serve. |
