Well it has been a few days since your ever-lovin green eyed chef has prepared a dish, and for this I do apologize. But i am here and made Roast Pears with IceCream.
Ingredients
2 tablespoons softened butter
2 cans pear halves in syrup(can use canned, but I used fresh, it makes a difference)
1 lemon, zested and 4 lemon twists of rind
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
3 pieces crystallized ginger, chopped or grated
1 pint French vanilla ice cream
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Place the butter in the bottom of a shallow baking dish. Drain off 3/4 of the liquids from each can – pears should remain wet but not swimming in syrup. Add pears to the dish and season with lemon zest, nutmeg and crystallized ginger then roast 20 minutes. Serve warm pears with scoops of French vanilla ice cream on top, garnish with lemon twist.
The Verdict........this was a tasty dish, but not my favorite. It was nice, but to me pears are just not really a fruit to be served hot ala'mode, like say the apple or peach. Butt still it was tasty, but mot something I would probably serve at a dinner party.
