• 3 cups (750ml boiling water)
• 2cm piece of fresh Ginger, peeled and sliced
• 1 Tbsp honey
• 3 firm pears, large. Peeled, halved and cored with stems left attached

1. Pour the boiling water into a large, wide- bottomed saucepan, add the tea bags and steep for 3- 5 minutes before removing. Add honey and ginger and bring to the boil on stove top, then simmer for 5 minutes.
2. Place the pear halves in the green tea liquid (cut side down). Cover and simmer gently, occasionally spooning liquid over the fruit. Simmer for 15- 20 minutes or until just tender.
3. Let the pears cool in the liquid, then serve warm or at room temperature with the fragrant poaching liquid spooned over top.

Great served with breakfast muesli, porridge, or as a dessert with a little ice cream, custard or yoghurt. You could even use the drained fruit as a crumble base- just sprinkle over a crumble topping, bake until golden and serve with hot poaching liquid.
