Use big red plums or red-fleshed pluots for a dramatic presentation. Serve as a sweet as in this recipe or as a savoury condiment alongside roasted ham, pork or duck.
Ingredients
-
8 large ripe red plums, halved and pitted (about 2 lb/1 kg)
1/4 cup (50 mL) almond-flavoured liqueur or orange juice
1/4 cup (50 mL) liquid honey
1 cup (250 mL) mascarpone cheese
1/2 cup (125 mL) slivered almonds, toasted
Preparation
Arrange plums, cut side down, in large shallow greased baking sheet. Whisk liqueur with half of the honey; pour over plums. Roast in 375ºF (190ºC) oven, basting occasionally, for 40 minutes, or until tender.
In bowl, combine remaining honey with mascarpone cheese; dollop on plums or serve on the side. Sprinkle almonds over plums.
