Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 firm pears (Corella or Beurre Bosc)
  • 2 cups water
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cinnamon stick
  • 1 vanilla bean, split
  • 1 strip lemon zest
  • 1/3 cup maple syrup
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1/2 tsp wattleseed (optional, for Aussie touch)
  • 2 burrata balls, torn and gently stirred
  • 1/4 cup mascarpone
  • 1 tsp honey
  • 1/3 cup pomegranate seeds
  • 2 tbsp chopped macadamias

Instructions

  1. Peel pears and core them from the bottom, keeping stems intact.
  2. Slice each pear horizontally into 3 rings.
  3. In a saucepan, combine water, sugar, cinnamon, vanilla, and lemon zest.
  4. Add pear slices and poach gently for 15 minutes until tender but firm.
  5. Remove pears and let cool.
  6. In another pan, simmer maple syrup and butter until slightly thickened. Stir in wattleseed.
  7. In a bowl, mix burrata, mascarpone, and honey until smooth and creamy.
  8. Assemble: bottom pear slice, dollop of cream, middle slice, more cream, then the pear top.
  9. Drizzle with warm caramel, sprinkle pomegranate, macadamia, and thyme.
  10. Serve slightly warm or at room temperature for full flavor bloom.
