Orange Poached Pears

 

3 pears, cored, peeled and sliced

1 cup yogurt

3 cups fresh orange juice

1/4 cup sugar

1 cinnamon stick

 

Heat the sugar and orange juice in a saucepan until

the sugar dissolves. Add the cinnamon stick and bring

to a gentle boil. Add the pear slices and poach at a

low simmer for 8-10 minutes or until the pears are

tender.

 

Remove the cinnamon stick and allow the pears to cool.

Drain the pears, reserving 3 cups of the syrup.

 

Heat the syrup over high heat, until it is reduced to

1 cup. Set aside to cool.

 

Place pear slices on desert plates. Cover with syrup,

and put a tablespoon of yogurt on top.
