Show Notes
Grilled pineapple with basil & honey sesame sauce
Don’t limit your bbq cooking to savoury food – grilled fruit can be a real winner. Served with ice cream, it’s the most delicious way to finish a BBQ meal.
Serves 4-6
One fresh pineapple
2 big tablespoons of honey
2 teaspoons sesame seeds
Small handful of basil leaves
Ice cream to serve
Skewers to serve
1. Peel pineapple and cut in half lengthwise. Cut into wedges, then cut these in half lengthwise too, removing the tough core of each. Cook on a grill until browned on at least one side – it gets such a lovely caramel flavour.
2. Make a little boat out of foil and spoon the honey into it. Pop this on the BBQ and heat until it’s bubbling and foaming. Remove very carefully!
3. To serve; Skewer each piece of pineapple with a wooden stick and arrange on a platter with balls of ice cream. Drizzle the whole lot with warmed honey and a sprinkle of sesame seeds and basil leaves. Eat up!
