Taco Fiesta: Charred Pineapple With Chipotle Crema

Yields: 2 portions.

Ingredients:

1/2 ripe pineapple, core removed and cut into 4 wedges
15 ml chipotle in adobo, puréed
1 lime, juiced*
10 ml ground coriander*
100 ml sour cream, or thick yoghurt

*Available from Well Seasoned

Instructions:

Either in the hot oven or on the hottest side of your grill, season the pineapple with coriander and char until it is nicely caramelized, around 5 minutes, not more to preserve the freshness and texture.
