CARAMELIZED PINEAPPLE CHUNKS

Pineapples are just all time favourites of our family. We try making different sort of recipes out of it. The simple most tastiest goodies among is the ''Caramalised Pineapple''. Caramelized is nothing but melting sugar until it becomes caramel liquid. Can have any time as you prefer though its quick to make cum delicious. Here I have posted 2 different pic which is of same method but of different size. That's up to ur choices :). In the first pic I have fried the chunks in a kadai where as in second I grilled the pieces then mixed up into caramelized sugar. May be whatever the method is, the taste remains the same. Yummy :) :)


INGREDIENTS

1 Cup Pineapple ( Chopped or sliced one as shown in pic)

1/2 Cup Sugar or less ( Depends on sweetness of the fruit)

2 tbsp of Water.

A drop of Lime juice.

Pinch of Cardamom pd. (optional)

1 tsp Ghee.

METHOD

In a non stick pan put ghee, add and fry the pineapple chunks till slight brown. It might take 10 to 12 min nearly under low flame. Keep it aside.

In the same pan, add sugar and water. Bring the mixture to boil without stirring. Then lower the heat and cont boiling. As the colour changes, stir so that the caramel colour is evenly cooked. Make sure you don't cook it for long as it would turn into dark and becomes hard. Soon as the colour changes, drop in the fried pineapple chunks and sprinkle with cardamom pd. Turn off the heat and remove.

Serve on a plate and drizzle with lime juice. Can also garnish with strawberry jam :)
