Method:

In a large pan bring water to boil then add Turmeric blend, jaggery powder, Orange juice, lemon juice , 3 crushed cardamoms pods and let it brew for 5, 6 minutes stir occasionally until aroma starts coming through.

Peel pears leaving the stems attached to the pear, add peeled pears in the water carefully

Reduce the heat and simmer cook pears on low for 20- 25 minutes, gently rotating pears with a spoon( making sure you don’t puncture the skin of the pears)

Switch off heat, leave pears in the pan, let it cool and cover with wrap and refrigerate until completely cool

8-10 hours is recommended or overnight.

Serve pears in a serving dish or a bowl, serve it with scoop of coconut ice-cream, drizzle of date syrup, or have it turmeric yogurt

You can even take out pears carefully in another bowl and reduce the poaching liquid until it reduces to its quantity and use to serve it with poached pears

Notes:

You can buy jaggery powder from any Indian store make sure don’t buy masala jaggery( plain jaggery works in this recipe)
Jaggery is a natural sweetener, it is prepared from the sap or the juice of plants that contains a considerable amount of sucrose or sugar
Its a healthier alternative to refined sugar
I used (Fia coconut cream Brand) for my whipped coconut cream
I love using these pears in my oat breakfast bowl too or just slice them length wise and add to your roasted vegetables or salad for extra wow factor
I use the remaining water into making my iced cold turmeric drink or use it to knead a dough or in a smoothie or even have it as a hot tea using plant based milk .
I generally dip my poached pears in poached liquid until I serve them. Best idea is to keep them in mason jar with liquid or deep glassware airtight container. The more it is soaked in liquid the most intense the flavors get. You can prep this 3 days before any party or function.
For Turmeric yogurt I just add 1 teaspoon turmeric blend, honey in unsweetened yogurt, mix it until everything gets incorporated well and serve your favorite way
