Chargrilled pineapple recipe

Ingredients

• 1 pineapple (or 1 tin of pineapple slices, in juice)
• 1 lime, cut into wedges
• 4 teaspoons desiccated coconut
• 4 tablespoons zero-fat Greek-style yoghurt (optional)

Method

1. Cut off the top and bottom of the pineapple, then remove the peel. Cut into 4 thick slices, and remove the core of each with a small knife.

Fresh pineapple is ideal for this dish but it works with tinned pineapple slices too. Allow 2 slices per person. You can also use ready-prepared fresh pineapple pieces, threaded on skewers.

2. Barbecue for 2 to 3 minutes on each side.

You can cook these in a griddle pan on the hob or under a grill set on a high heat, too.

3. Serve each slice sprinkled with coconut and with a wedge of lime on the side. Add a spoonful of yoghurt if you like.

Try this with other fruits – barbecued mangoes, peaches, strawberries and bananas are all delicious!
