Sweetened Grilled Peaches And Pears In White Wine - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
1 cup white wine (Chardonnay works well for this)
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon allspice
1 tablespoon of fresh mint
4 peaches (I prefer white if you can find them)
4 bartlette pears
1 cup mascarpone cheese
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon orange juice
1/2 cup pistachios, toasted
Preparation
-
Cut the peaches and pears in thick slices, don't peel, just nice thick slices. You will be grilling these so you don't want them too thin.
Mix the wine, mint, allspice and brown sugar in a pie pan or small bowl and add the peaches and pears and let marinade 1-2 hours.
Mix the mascarpone, honey and orange juice and chill in a small bowl.
Toast the pistachios. I rough chop and then lightly toast in a dry saute pan for 2-3 minutes just to lightly toast and intensify the flavors. Remove and let cool.
Grill on medium heat on a grill pan or they can be done on a outdoor grill as well. Grill until until nice grill marks on each side but not overdone.
Just serve the fresh grilled fruit with a dollop of the mascarpone cheese topping and toasted pistachios.
