PEARS IN SAFFRON AND CINNAMON SYRUP RECIPE BY ANGELA CARLOS
I regularly make batches of these pears and keep them in my refrigerator to pull out for my cookery workshops, or as impromptu mezze. I cut them into strips and tuck them around the roasted baby peppers stuffed with feta, and I also use fine strips on top of yogurt dips, creamy puddings, or strained yogurt. They taste great with tangy, salty, and blue cheeses and cut into quarters, revealing that the flesh is golden yellow all the way through, they grace any plate. Served whole, they look decorative and appealing and rather special.Mezze by Ghillie Basan, photography by Jan Baldwin, is published by Ryland Peters & Small.

Steps:
- Tip the sugar into a heavy-based saucepan and add the water and the saffron fronds. Leave the fronds to weep their dye while you prepare the pears.
- Fill a bowl with cold water and keep it beside you while you peel the pears, keeping them whole with the stalks intact, and pop them into the water to prevent them from discolouring.
- Heat the sugar, water, and saffron and bring it to a boil, stirring all the time until the sugar dissolves. Reduce the heat, drop in the cinnamon sticks, and simmer for 10 minutes to form a syrup.
- Drain the pears, shake off any excess water, and add them to the syrup. Bring the syrup to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer the pears, rolling them from time to time in the syrup, for about 1 1/2 hours, so that the saffron color penetrates the fruit. Leave the pears to cool in the syrup.
- Pop the pears into sterilized jars, top them up with the syrup, and keep them in the refrigerator, or a cool place. They’ll keep for at least 6 months. Serve them whole, quartered lengthways, or finely sliced with almost any selection of mezze dishes.

GULAB JAMUNS IN SAFFRON SYRUP - THE HAPPY FOODIE
From thehappyfoodie.co.uk
Cuisine Indian
First make a simple sugar syrup. Put the sugar, 750ml of water, the cardamom seeds and rose water into a deep-sided pan, and bring to a boil over a medium heat. Turn the heat down and simmer for around 10 minutes, until it thickens into a light, cordial-style syrup, stirring every now and again. Take off the heat, leave to cool, then taste and add more rose water (sparingly) if needed.
To make the jamuns, mix together the milk powder, flour, semolina and ghee in a bowl. Little by little, add the warm milk to the mixture to bind it together into a dough – you might not need all the milk, so add it slowly until you get a soft, pliable dough. Don’t overwork it, just knead it until it comes together.
Pour the oil into a deep-sided pan and heat it to around 140°C. Meanwhile, place a large plate or tray covered with kitchen paper on the side. Roll the dough into little balls the size of a marble (around 10g each) and lay them out on another tray. These will inflate in the hot oil, so don’t panic if you think they’re a little small. When rolling, you might
need a dab of warm ghee or oil to get a good ball. Try not to press too hard, and do your best to smooth out any cracks so the balls don’t split in the hot oil. But equally, be gentle on yourself if this is your first time.Fry 4 to 6 jamuns at a time for 5 to 7 minutes, until golden brown, or the colour of almond skin. Remove to the tray covered with kitchen paper and drain. It’s worth testing the first batch. They’ll be firm on the outside and cakey inside but not gooey. (If they’re gooey, increase the cooking time.) Fry the rest. After they have cooled a little, put them into the syrup and leave to soak for a day or at least a few hours. To serve them warm, place the gulab jamuns and their syrup in a saucepan over a gentle heat. Serve drained of all but a couple of tablespoons of the syrup. Sprinkle ove the pistachios. If not serving straight away, refrigerate.
