LAVENDER AND ORANGE INFUSED PEARS
Pears are one of my favourite fruits .
Peel 4 firm pears and cut a smalll piece from the base so that the pears stand upright .
( if you are using ripe pears , they take less time to cook ).
Place 1 cup of sugar and the grated rind of 2 oranges along with 1 cup of orange juice , 10 lavender heads and 2 cups of water into a small saucepan and bring to the boil , stirring until the sugar dissolves .
Reduce the heat to a slow simmer .
Now place the 4 pears in the saucepan and cover .
Simmer until pears soften and a skewer inserted can be removed easily .
Transfer the pears to a plate , remove the lavender heads , reduce the syrup ..
Stand the pears in the serving dish and pour over the warm syrup .
Serve with cream , optional .
