Guest Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 Well I'm doing a fresh fruit salad. Pineapple, mango, pears, plums, clementine and apple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 We are having the same main as you tonight Martin How about Baked Apples? They are in season now, are simple to do (although I don't have a recipe), & are a nice fresh taste after a heavy meal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 Baked apples - score around the outside, about where the Equator would be (!) Core Put in dish and drizzle maple syrup or brown sugar down the hole where the core was. Add raisins/sultanas. Bake in oven for 30 minutes - ish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 Yesterday I did pears poached in red wine and brown sugar. very easy and quite delicious. White wine would probably have been the 'better' choice, but i was using up left-over red wine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhapsody Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 i was using up left-over red wine. what's that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 You want the truth?? My DD1 was 18 in June and we had a party for her. There was some red wine left over in a box. It is now October and the party was on June 2nd. So, you see, it was ideal for poaching pears. I don't drink wine really - it makes my face go bright red (very ) and my nose gets blocked up so then I sniff and can't breathe very well. All in all, it's better for everyone if I don't drink!
