I highly recommend measuring by weight and mls instead of cups. You will get better, more consistent results!

• Peel, core and dice the pears.
• Add the butter and brown sugar to a skillet. Cook on medium, stirring until the sugar and butter are melted together and foamy.
• Continue to cook for another minute or two to get more color on the caramel but be careful not to burn the sugar. Add the ginger, cinnamon and cardamom and mix well.
• Add the diced pears and stir well. Cook the pears for a few minutes until they have released a lot of juice.
• Continue to cook the pears for about twenty minutes, stirring frequently until they have cooked down and have a wonderfully thick, almost jammy consistency.
• Serve immediately while still warm or cool and store in a covered container until needed. Delicious!
