Ingredients
75cl bottle rosé wine
400ml red grape juice
Finely peeled zest of 1 small orange
200g sugar
4 level tbsp redcurrant jelly
10 firm pears
1 level tbsp cornflour, mixed with 2 tbsp cold water
Method
1Put the wine in a large pan with the grape juice, orange zest, sugar and jelly. Heat gently, stirring, until the sugar has dissolved and the jelly has melted. Pour half into another pan (each pan needs to hold five pears, standing upright).
2Peel the pears, leaving the stalks on, and put them in the pans. Partially cover and simmer for 30 minutes until tender, basting with the rosé syrup occasionally. Carefully lift the pears out and put in a bowl.
3Pour the syrup into one pan. Heat until boiling and cook at a fast simmer, uncovered, for 10-15 minutes. Remove the zest. Stir in the cornflour mixture and heat until slightly thickened. Pour over the pears and leave to cool, occasionally basting with the syrup.
