A great combination to which I found in ” Pieminister” by Tristan Hogg and Jon Simon. For a quicker version just buy a bottle of mulled wine.
Ingredients
- 2 Tangerines
- 1 bottle red wine for the mulled wine
- 300 g soft brown sugar
- 6 cloves
- a cinnamon stick or piece of cassia bark
- 2 star anise
- 10 allspice berries
- a thumb sized piece fresh ginger roughly sliced
- 1 vanilla pod slit open lengthways
- 1.5 kg plums stoned and quartered
For the crumble topping:
- 300 g plain flour
- 200 g rolled oats
- 150 g caster sugar
- 250 g lightly salted butter cut into cubes
Servings:
Instructions
- Peel the zest from the tangerines using a vegetable peeler leaving the white pith behind. Squeeze out the juice. Put the juice and strips of zest in a pan with the wine, sugar and spices. Bring to the boil and simmer until reduced by half.
- Preheat the oven to 180 C, Gas 4. Put the plums into a large pan and strain the red wine on to them, discarding the spices. Bring to a simmer then cover and cook gently for about 10 minutes until the plums just start to break up a little. Remove the plums with a slotted spoon and set aside.
- Boil the liquid to reduce by half again to make a sticky syrup.
- For the crumble topping put all the ingredients into a bowl and rub together with your fingertips untilthe mixture resembles large breadcrumbs.
- Divide the mixture between 10 bowls or cups and pour about a tbsp of syrup over each one. Or use one big dish. Scatter over the crumble mixture.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes until lightly browned. Serve with ice cream or custard and any leftover plum juices.
