The sticky sweet, naturally delectable fruit dish is made complete with tangy ricotta and finished off with a dollop of natural, unsweetened yoghurt for a healthy, satisfying dessert that’s balanced enough for breakfast.

Ingredients 

  • 1 Williams pear large
  • 1 tablespoon honey + a little extra to drizzle at the end
  • Juice from 1/2 lemon
  • Ghee or butter
  • 2 cups full-fat ricotta organic if possible
  • 3 tbsp Greek yoghurt unsweetened, full-fat
  • 1.5 tablespoons poppy seeds ground

Instructions

  • Slice the pear into thin slices, leave the tails and seeds as they are. We want to preserve the outline of the pear for the presentation. If you don't care about the looks, slice the pear any way you like.
  • Mix the honey with lemon juice and coat the pear slices, letting them marinate for a few minutes.
  • Heat a frying pan with a little ghee or butter to medium-high. Place pear slices and fry for two and a half minutes on each side or until golden brown.
  • Build a stack with ricotta and pear slices as shown in the pick. Mix the yoghurt with poppy seeds and serve on the side. Drizzle with a little extra honey, if you like.
