Description

This savory-sweet pairing is either great as a side dish for meat or just on its own with some fresh, roasted bread.

Ingredients
  • 4 pears
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 30 grams walnuts
  • 200 grams gorgonzola (crumbled)
  • 250 grams raspberries
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • salt & pepper (to taste)
Instructions
  1. Wash pears, cut in half lengthwise and cut out the core.

  2. Melt the butter in a pan and fry the pears on both sides until golden brown.

  3. Meanwhile, roast the walnuts in the pan until fragrant.

  4. Place the pears in a baking dish, sprinkle with the crumbled Gorgonzola and gratinate in the preheated oven at the highest temperature (grill function if available) for 4 to 5 minutes.

  5. In a small pot, cook the raspberries until soft, pass them through a sieve and season with the salt, pepper, honey and oil.

  6. Garnish the pears with the walnuts and serve with the raspberry sauce.
