Delicious and low-fat. There are other Burgundy pear recipes on Zaar, but this one is a little different.
Ingredients:
1 cup burgundy wine
1/2 cup apple juice
3 tablespoons red currant jelly
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice (optional)
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves (optional)
4 firm fresh bartlett pears
Directions:
1. Peel, halve, and core the pears.
2. Combine all other ingredients in a saucepan, stir, and bring to a boil.
3. Reduce heat to low, add pears, and cover.
4. Simmer for approximately 10 minutes (until pears are tender), turning pears often.
5. Let pears cool slightly in pan.
6. Transfer pears to a serving dish and spoon the poaching liquid over.
7. Serve warm or chilled.
