The twist to these sundaes is a simple ginger-flavored sauce sparked with lime. It can be made ahead and rewarmed before you assemble the sundaes. Ingredients:
1/2 cup sugar |
1/2 cup firmly packed golden brown sugar |
6 tablespoons water |
1/4 cup strained fresh lime juice |
3 tablespoons unsalted butter |
2 pieces crystallized ginger |
3 tablespoons minced crystallized ginger |
vanilla ice cream |
3 cups diced peeled tropical fruit such as pineapple, papaya and/or mango |
toasted sweetened shredded coconut |
Directions:
1. For sauce: Combine first 6 ingredients in heavy medium saucepan. Stir over medium heat until sugars dissolve. Boil gently until reduced to 1 cup, stirring frequently, about 15 minutes. Cool to lukewarm. Discard ginger pieces and add minced ginger. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and store at room temperature. Reheat to lukewarm, whisking occasionally, before serving.) 2. For sundaes: Scoop ice cream into balloon glasses or sundae dishes. Spoon lukewarm sauce over. Top with fruit. Sprinkle with coconut and serve. |
