These pears have been poached in sweet, white muscadel for a lovely golden colour, but you can also use a red muscadel for a pinker shade.
This is a great recipe for a crowd. It looks impressive when brought to the table straight from the oven, and is just as beautiful sliced thickly and plated. Delicious served hot or cold with crusty bread.

Good old-fashioned lemon curd. This recipe comes to us via Craig Hibbert, ex-pastry chef at The Palace Hotel, Sun City.
I found this at The Radium Beer Hall in Johannesburg and I love it. Thank you to Manuel, and to Artemis for managing to pass the recipe on to me. Manny says to use a good, fairly strong beer with character because that’s what will end up on your plate.
