Makes: 4 servings
Ingredients
• Hung Curd, 1 ½ cup
• Honey, 2 tablespoons
• Vanilla Beans from 1 Vanilla Pod
• Vanilla essense, ¼ teaspoon
• Water, 50 ml
• Dark Rum, 120 ml
• Dark Brown Sugar, 2 tablespoons
• Pineapple, sliced, 3-4 pieces (3/4th of an inch thick)
• Mint Leaves, for garnish (optional)
Method
For the frozen vanilla yogurt: Mix hung curd, vanilla beans, vanilla essence and honey using a hand whisk. Once you attain a smooth consistency transfer the mix to a plastic container and cover it with plastic wrap. Freeze for atleast 4 hours.
For the rum syrup: mix water, rum and dark brown sugar in a pan. Heat this mixture over medium heat until it begins to boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and let it reduce for 7-8 minutes. Do not increase the heat or thicken it too much. We want a slightly runny syrup. Let it cool in the refrigerator until you’re ready to serve.
When you’re ready to serve, heat your grill on high. Once hot, place pineapple slices over it. Let it grill until you see grill marks. Flip and repeat on the other side.
To assemble, place the pineapple slice on a plate, top it with a scoop of vanilla yogurt and drizzle some rum syrup over it.
