Ingredients:

  • 750 ml kriek beer
  • 150 g sugar
  • 1 cinnamon stick
  • 4 -5 pears

Directions:

  1. Slice the lemon into pieces and add it to a saucepan together with the Kriek.
  2. Bring the mixture up to a boil and add the sugar and the cinnamon stick. Let this come back up to a boil and reduce the heat to medium-low and let it cook for 10 minutes. Meanwhile peel the pears. Place the pears upright in a saucepan large enough to hold them, remove the lemon pieces and the cinnamon stick from the Kriek and pour the Kriek mixture over the pears. Cover the pan and poach the pears on low heat for 45 minutes. Remove the pears and set them aside for the moment. Bring the Kriek mixture back to boiling and cook it until it thickens to a red syrup. Pour the sauce over the pears and serve. I would recommend a little crêms fràiche on the side.
