Pear tarte Tatin
12 comments
"I had quite a disaster. The star anise was incredibly strong and then due to the "high heat" the sugar burnt slightly before it could caramelise. It tasted terrible. I literally had to wash the pears and then start all over again with a very basic butter/sugar/cinnamon/ cardamon sauce on a low to medium heat. This was fine and the rest of the recipe worked beautifully. Totally wowed the guests! "

"What a fantastic recipe! So tasty. I made it in separate ramekins and used parsnip for the mash instead - both worked very well. Will definitely make again. "

"The 2 egg ratio has to be a mistake! I also needed 5 for complete coverage of the vegetables. A home-made chutney, relish or harissa gives it the kick it needs. "
