Slow cooked pineapple treat
Preparation Time: 5 minutes
Cooking Time: 75 minutes
Makes: 6 - 8 servings
Spicy sauce
Ingredients
1 pineapple (whole)
1/2 cup filtered water
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 sticks cinnamon
2 star anise
6 cloves
Method
Take the husk off the outside of the whole pineapple.
Husk the pineapple
Simmer the water, sugar, cinnamon sticks, cloves, and star anise in the water until it becomes syrupy (it should take around fifteen minutes).
Drizzle with sweet syrup
Pour the syrup into a baking dish and add the pineapple. Drizzle the pineapple with the sweet syrup every fifteen minutes for an hour, and turn it over after half an hour.
Bake for an hour
The natural sweetness of the pineapple will come out after half an hour and it will become quite sticky at this point. Be careful not to overcook it or it will burn.
Serve with ice cream
Serve warm with meat, creme fraiche, or ice cream. Enjoy.
