Equipment

  • Saucepan
  • Slotted spoon
  • Wire rack
  • Bowl

Ingredients

For the candied pineapple

  • 4 thin slices fresh pineapple skin removed
  • 250 g caster sugar

For the syllabub

  • 1 lime juice
  • 5 tbsp caster sugar
  • 300 ml double cream
  • 50 g finely chopped pineapple
  • 1/3 coconut finely grated, toasted in a dry pan
  • Finely grated lime zest to decorate

Method

  • The day before you plan to serve the syllabub, prepare the candied pineapple. Place the pineapple slices into boiling water and blanch for 1 minute, then submerge into iced water to cool. Drain.
  • Place 240ml of water in a saucepan. Add 200g of the sugar and dissolve gently over a low heat. Once the sugar has dissolved, add the pineapple slices. Do not stir, but move the pan to ensure the pineapple slices are fully immersed. Simmer for one and a half hours.
  • Remove the pineapple from the pan with a slotted spoon. Toss with the remaining 50g of sugar, and leave to dry for at least 24 hours on a wire rack before using.
  • To make the syllabub, place the lime juice in a bowl, add the sugar, and stir until it starts to dissolve. Pour in the cream and whisk until the mixture forms soft peaks. Fold in the chopped pineapple and toasted coconut.
  • Spoon into four serving glasses, and chill in the fridge for 30 minutes. Garnish with the lime zest and a slice of candied pineapple.
