Baked Quince With Yoghurt


The quince turns a lovely pinkish colour when baked. The yoghurt gives a cool - tart contrast to the sweetness of the fruit. The walnuts add crunch. Delicious - especially in winter.

Steps


Preheat oven to 350f.
Peel the quinces and halve lengthwise.
Using a sharp paring knife or spoon scoop out the core and seeds.
Place the quince cut side down on a shallow baking sheet.
Pour a little water into the pan to keep the quinces from burning.
Combine the honey and lemon juice and pour evenly over the quince.
Bake , uncovered , until tender , about 45-60 minutes.
Remove and cool.
Place each quince half on a small serving dish.
Combine the yoghurt with 3 tablespoons reserved honey and stir gently to blend.
Fill with a tablespoonful or two of yoghurt or sour cream.
Drizzle with any of the honey-syrup left from baking the quince and serve with a sprinkling of cinnamon.
