INGREDIENTS

INSTRUCTIONS

Melt 1 tbsp butter in a large frying pan. Add the walnuts and cook  for
a few minutes until toasted, turning and shaking the pan  frequently to
prevent any burning.  2 Sprinkle over 1 tbsp sugar and stir until the
sugar has completely  dissolved. Turn out onto a plate, season to taste
and leave to cool  completely.  3 Peel the pears and remove the cores
from the base of each pear,  leaving the stems intact. Slice a little
off the base to ensure the  pears stand upright, then toss in the lemon
juice to prevent  discoloration.  4 Add the remaining sugar to a heavy-
based pan that will comfortably  fit the pears and heat for 5-10
minutes on a medium-high heat until a  medium caramel, without
stirring.  5 Drain the lemon juice from the pears and add to the pan,
swirling  gently until well combined. Reduce the heat and add the
pears, base  side down. Cook for 10 minutes until tender, turning
regularly to  ensure even cooking. Remove and arrange on serving
plates.  6 Add the remaining butter and swirl until melted and slightly
thickened. Spoon over the pears, surround with the walnuts and blue
cheese, and serve.  Converted by MC_Buster.  Recipe by: Food & Drink
