Coconut Grilled Pineapple

Features:
    Cuisine:

    I've not often used fresh pineapple - British cookery sites recommend a spiral gadget, cut the top off the pineapple, use the gadget to bring out a continuous spiral then cut into rings. Messy & I get juice all over me so I buy tins. However, I love the peeling method which I'd never thought of. Not sure why you specify unsweetened milk but add sugar, it doesn't matter anyway because I've never seen it sweetened (it's sold with Thai ingredients here). I didn't add any though, there's plenty of sugar in the pineapple & it caramelised nicely under the grill, it would have fried well too with the tiniest bit of oil in a cast-iron pan. (While BBQ's (grills) are not rare here, many people don't have them; what we do have is a grill (broiler) in a space above the oven & beneath the hob, that is what used).

    Coconut-Grilled Pineapple,A great side dish to chicken or fish. Also perfect as a dessert; feel free to add scoop of ice cream. I have actually cooked these on high heat in a frying pan with great results as well! Note that the calorie is less that what’s posted, as you will not use up all of the milk or sugar.
