You can roast fruit as well as meat and vegetables. While you're roasting your meat put some pears in the oven for dessert.
1. Cut your pears (skin on) into quarters, take out the core and seeds.
2. Put them in a foil lined baking dish, sprinkle them with honey, lemon juice, lemon zest, some slices of fresh ginger root and a dob of butter.
3. Roast until tender - about 20 mins and serve with ice-cream or whipped vanilla cream.
