However, for this special food feature, Ghai has decided to indulge our sweet tooths with recipes that give milk-based desserts a skip in favour of some of his favourite fruit-based specialties.
POACHED PEARS
Poached pears are an ideal winter dessert. The pears are poached in red wine or fruit juices, with spices and sugar, and are usually served with a flavoured glaze or ice cream.

• 100ml (3½ floz) maple syrup
• a generous pinch of saffron
• 1 star anise
• 3-4 green cardamoms
