Desserts
Pears in Red Wine
Strong red wine (Shiraz/Syrah) 500 ml
Firm pears 6
Cinnamon stick 1
Vanilla pod 1
Peel of half an orange
Water 200 ml
Fructose 150g
Method
Pour the wine into your crock pot
and then place in the pears, making
sure that they are sitting upright.
Add the remaining ingredients and
cook for 4 1 / 2 hours. Once cooked,
remove pears, set a side while you
put the liquid into a frying pan and
briskly reduce by half or until you
have a consistency of double
cream. Bear in mind that the more
you reduce the liquid, the sweeter it
will become. Serve with vanilla ice
cream or a blob of fromage frais.
Great because...
Pears are rich in soluble fibre which
helps to control blood sugar and
blood cholesterol levels.
It is a low calorie pudding with
almost a third of your day’s fibre per
serving.
Rice pudding
2.5 litres
Butter 25g
Pudding rice 100g
Sugar 100g
Milk 1 litre
Pinch of nutmeg
Method
Butter the inside of the crock pot.
Add all ingredients and stir. Place
crock pot on the slow cooker base
and cover with the lid. Cook for

Fruit compote
2.5 litres
Dried mixed fruit, such as apples, prunes,
pears, apricots and peaches
275g
Sultanas 30g
Raisins 30g
Flaked almonds 20g
Caster sugar 3 tbsp
Water 625ml
Cointreau 3 tbsp
Method
Place all ingredients, except the
cointreau, in the crock pot. As the
apple rings tend to float to the
surface and may discolour, put
them at the bottom. Cook for
approximately 4 1 / 2 - 6 1 / 2 hours.
Transfer the fruit to a serving dish
and allow to cool. Cool the fruit first
before putting into a cut-glass dish.
Stir in the cointreau and serve
chilled.
