Quince wedges are grilled until just tender, then drizzled with honey and cinnamon for a simple dessert from Greek garden tables. Free of dairy and nuts, it lets the fruit's own sweetness shine and packs easily into a jar for a lunchbox.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Prepare the quince

10 min

Wash the quince, core it and slice it about 1 cm thick. Toss the slices in lemon juice to keep them from browning.

2

Get it ready for the grill

12 min

Brush the slices with a little olive oil and grill them on a hot grill for 6 minutes per side, until lightly charred.

3

Let it soften

3 min

Rest the grilled slices on a plate for 3 minutes; the quince keeps softening from the inside as it sits.

4

Finish with honey and cinnamon

2 min

Drizzle honey over the warm quince slices and dust them with cinnamon; spoon into a jar to serve, if you like.

Reminder

Slice the quince thinly and toss it in lemon juice before grilling, or the cut surfaces will brown quickly. The fruit contains no dairy or nuts, so it is safe to serve to guests who avoid lactose or nuts.

Editor's Note Editörün Notu

Substituting a firm pear for the quince shortens the grilling time by 5 minutes and gives the dessert a slightly milder aroma.

Dilimleri 1 santim kalınlığında kestim ama ızgarada 6'şar dakika yetmedi, kenarları yanmadan ortası sertliğini korudu; bir dahaki sefere dilimleri biraz daha ince kesip süreyi kısaltacağım.
