Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup dark rum
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar
  • 1 pineapple peeled, cored & cut into 1/2" slices
  • 1 1/2 tablespoon cold butter or vegan butter
  • pinch of sea salt
  • ice cream or 'nice cream' to serve

Instructions

  1. Combine the rum and brown sugar in a dish and whisk together until combined.

  2. Arrange the pineapple slices along the bottom of a 9x13" baking dish and pour the rum and brown sugar mixture over the pineapple. Let it soak for 2-6 hours, flipping the pineapple half way through to allow the rum to soak into both sides.

  3. Remove the pineapple from the rum mixture and pour the rum mixture into a small saucepan. To make the salted caramel sauce, bring the mixture to a boil over medium high heat and cook until it is slightly thickened and reduced by about 2/3. Remove from the heat and add the cold butter and sea salt. Swirl the saucepan to gently incorporate the butter and set aside.

  4. Heat a grill pan to medium-high heat. Place the pineapple slices on the preheated grill and cook in batches on each side for 3-5 minutes until caramelized and the grill marks show. Be prepared for a bit of smoke form the sugars if you're cooking inside.

  5. To serve, place the pineapple ring in a shallow bowl or plate, top with a small scoop of ice cream or 'nice cream in the centre, and drizzle with the salted caramel.
