Variations
Making this for 2 people I have slightly amended the original recipe, instead of venison, I made it with bought sliced ham that I smoked myself.
- 1 pear - unfortunately, not so ripe.
- 1 tablespoons clear honey
- 2 tablespoons Belazu olive oil
- 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon Belazu Smoked Chilli Jelly
I also sliced the pear very thinly as it was a little hard.
Chef's note
Heat the honey in a microwave for 20 seconds to get it nicely runny. Marinade the pears on a large plate to get them properly flavoured.
Serving suggestion
I served these in homemade pitta bread.
