This is an adaptation of a Ross Dobson recipe. Spicy and very quick to make. The golden syrup gives an interesting twist to the recipe (the original used maple syrup). Use a good peppery (Spanish style) olive oil. Great picknick food: drizzle the cut pears with a bit of lemon juice and combine with rucola and walnuts, and add pre-made dressing and cheese during the picknick. Ingredients:
1/2 cup walnuts |
3 pears |
2 tablespoons golden syrup |
1/4 cup olive oil |
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar |
1 teaspoon dijon mustard |
salt |
black pepper |
2 cups rucola |
150 g soft fresh goat cheese |
Directions:
1. Lightly toast the walnuts.
2. Peel and core the pears and cut into thin wedges.
3. Stir syrup, olive oil, vinegar, and mustard into a dressing.
4. Season well with salt and pepper.
5. Toss pears, walnuts, rucola, and half the dressing.
6. Crumble cheese on top and drizzle rest of dressing over it.
