Roasted Pear And Cranberry Relish Recipes

CRANBERRY-PEAR RELISH

Steps:

• Wash and dry the orange. Cut the orange into small wedges, including the peel, and put in a food processor. Add the cranberries, pear, sugar, and salt. Pulse until coarsely chopped. Transfer to a bowl, cover, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours and up to 2 days. Just before serving, stir in the pecans.

CRANBERRY PEAR RELISH

Steps:

• Squeeze juice from the orange; add enough water to measure 1/2 cup. Pour into a saucepan; add the remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 25-30 minutes or until the cranberries pop and mixture is thickened. Cool. Cover and store in the refrigerator.

CRANBERRY PEAR SALAD

Steps:

• Whisk olive oil, balsamic vinegar, brown sugar, garlic, salt, and black pepper in a bowl. Combine greens, pears, cranberries, pecans, and Havarti cheese in a large bowl. Pour balsamic vinegar dressing over salad and toss. Garnish with almonds to serve.

SPICED CRANBERRY & PEAR RELISH

Steps:

• Put all the ingredients except the pear in a non-reactive saucepan with a large pinch of salt. Bring it slowly to a simmer, stirring to make sure all the sugar has dissolved. Add the pear and continue cooking until the mixture has the consistency of thick jam.
• Sterilise your jars and lids by washing them in hot soapy water, rinsing well and drying them in a warm oven. Spoon the hot relish into the hot jars and seal. Leave to cool. Will keep unopened in a cool, dark place for up to 6 months. Once opened, relish is best eaten within 2 months.

ROAST PORK LOIN WITH PEARS AND CRANBERRIES

Steps:

• 1. Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 375°F. Pat the pork loin dry and sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Add olive oil to a large oven-proof skillet and heat over medium-high heat. When very hot, add the pork and brown on all sides, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a platter.
• 2. Adjust the heat to medium and add 2 tablespoons of the butter. Add the pear wedges in a single layer and cook, turning once, until the pears are tender and begin to brown slightly, about 5 minutes. Transfer to the platter with the pork.
• 3. Stir the onions and rosemary into the skillet and cook until the onions begin to soften, about 5 minutes. Add the wine and cook until reduced by half, scraping up any brown bits on the bottom of the pan. Add the chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Place the pork back in the skillet and spoon the pears around the pork. Roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 140°F, about 50 minutes. Transfer the pork to a cutting board; let rest at least 20 minutes while you make the pan sauce. Transfer the pears to a large platter.
• 4. Place the skillet over high heat and reduce the broth by half, about 6 minutes. Add the cranberries and mustard to the skillet; continue to cook until the mixture begins to thicken, about 5 more minutes. Whisk in the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and season with salt and pepper to taste. Slice the pork and serve with the sauce.
