Sizzling Fruit Medley with Juicy Purée Drizzle
Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh mixed fruits (e.g., pineapple, mango, strawberries), chopped into bite-sized pieces
- 1 cup fruit juice (e.g., orange or apple)
- 1/2 cup crushed pieces of dried fruit (e.g., apricots or dates)
- 1/2 cup smooth fruit purée (e.g., peach or berry)
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1 tablespoon fresh mint leaves, finely chopped (optional for garnish)
Instructions
1. Preparations
- Begin by preparing the fresh fruits. Ensure they are washed, peeled if necessary, and chopped into bite-sized pieces.
2. Initial Saute
- In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.
- Add the fresh fruit pieces to the skillet, stirring occasionally and allow them to sauté for about 5 minutes, until they start to soften.
3. Infuse Flavor
- Once the fruits have softened, stir in the honey, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
- Continue to sauté for another 3 minutes, ensuring the fruits are well-coated with the spice mix.
4. Add Crushed Fruit and Juice
- Add the crushed dried fruit pieces to the skillet, followed by the fruit juice.
- Increase the heat to medium-high and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Allow it to cook for an additional 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the juice reduces slightly and the dried fruits begin to swell.
5. Finishing Touches
- Reduce the heat to low and gently fold in the smooth fruit purée, letting the entire mixture warm through for an additional 2 minutes.
- Remove the skillet from the heat and let it rest for a few minutes to thicken.
6. Serving
- Serve the sautéed fruit medley warm, drizzling any remaining purée sauce over each portion.
- For a touch of freshness, garnish with finely chopped mint leaves if desired.
