Poached Pears with Yogurt
Servings: 4 -1/2 Pear with Yogut
Ingredients
- ¾ cup apple juice
- ½ cup pomegranate juice
- 2 inch long orange rind strip
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 2 pears peeled, halved, and cored
- 1 (5.3 oz.) yogurt
Instructions
- In a small pan over medium-high heat, bring apple juice, pomegranate juice, orange rind, and cinnamon stick to a boil.
- Place pears face down in the pan. Lower heat and simmer gently until a knife inserted into the pears meets no resistance, about 10-20 minutes, spooning the sauce over the pears as they cook. Once the pears are tender, remove from heat and let cool.
- Over medium-low heat, reduce the remaining poaching liquid to a glaze, about 7-8 minutes. Pour over pears. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
- To serve, place 1/2 pear on each dish and top with a dollop of yogurt over each.
