SPICED NECTARINE SAUCE



Spiced Nectarine Sauce image

Green cardamom pods and fresh ginger root enliven this fruit sauce, made with fresh nectarines. The spices and the cooking impart a tangy, tart flavor to the nectarines. It's great over ice cream or stirred into cooked multi-grain hot cereal and eaten with a splash of cream or soy milk. I created this last summer when I needed to use up some huge ripe nectarines that I purchased at the farmer's market. Substitute about a half a teaspoon of ground cardamom if you don't have the whole green pods.

Categories     Fruit

Time 15m

Yield 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 ripe nectarines, pitted and cubed
1 inch piece fresh gingerroot, peeled, minced and then pulverized using a mortar and pestle
2 -3 tablespoons butter
1 -2 tablespoon brown sugar, to taste
1 -1 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, to taste
5 -10 whole green cardamom pods or 1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom

Steps:

  • If you'd rather, peel the nectarines; I like having the peel in there.
  • Melt butter in small saucepan over medium high heat.
  • Dissolve brown sugar in the melted butter, then add the cubed nectarines and the rest of the spices.
  • When mixture starts to simmer, turn heat down to low.
  • Simmer in order to achieve desired consistency and allow flavors to blend. You will want this to be chunky, with some textural variation--chunks of fruit in a thick, medium-brown sauce. This may take 5-10 minutes. Remove pods before serving (? I'm actually not sure if you can eat them).
  • Serve warm with vanilla ice cream, or cool and refrigerate.
  • My note: this was excellent with hot multigrain cereal! I cooked the cereal first and then added the sauce, about 1:1, stirred it in and warmed it up along with the cereal for a few minutes on low/simmer. Yummy!
