Grilled
Cardamom Scented Pineapple w/ Vanilla Ice Cream
Summer
dessert recipes call out for fruit, and this grilled pineapple
recipe would make a refreshing ending for a summer barbeque
with an Indian theme. Grilled Pineapple is so quick and
easy to make on the grill, even as the grill is cooling
off. Grilling fruit makes the sweetness in the fruit come
out, and when you've got a fruit as delicious as pineapple,
you're in for a special treat, especially with a scoop
of ice cream to top off your delicious pineapple dessert!
Just be sure to brush the grill clean of any blackened
residue before adding the fruit.
Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat).
Bring
molasses, butter, and cardamom to boil in heavy medium saucepan
over high heat, stirring occasionally to melt butter. Reduce
heat to low and simmer until slightly thickened, about 5
minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in lime juice. (Can be made
4 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature. Whisk before
using.)
Brush pineapple rounds with peanut oil. Sprinkle with salt
and pepper.
Grill
until golden brown and slightly charred, brushing with glaze
on each side during last 30 seconds of cooking, about 4 minutes
per side. Divide pineapple among 6 plates. Top with vanilla
ice cream, and drizzle with remaining glaze.
Makes 6 servings.
