Roast clementines with vanilla
Combine citrus with creamy flavours and add a big splash of Cointreau - the results are spectacular

Preparation and cooking times
Ready in 25 mins
- Heat the oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Finely chop one of the vanilla pods and split the other along its length. Put the clementine halves in a baking dish cut-side up (choose a dish they will fit in quite snugly). Mix the sugar with the chopped vanilla pod then divide between each clementine, packing it onto the cut surfaces. Sprinkle on the liqueur and dot with a little butter. Lay the whole vanilla pod on top.
- Grill on a low heat for 10-15 minutes, then turn up the grill and cook for a couple of minutes until the sugar surface begins to bubble. The sugar and juice will combine to make a sauce. Serve with ice cream or cream.
Know-how
There is rather a dearth of fresh local fruit at this time of year, apples and pears excepted, but citrus is plentiful and, with a few flavour additions, it's spectacular.
