Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 200ºC/400ºF/gas 6. In a bowl, sift flour, add sugar, salt, and ginger. Cut cold butter into chunks and rub into the mixture until it resembles fine breadcrumbs. Boil water and sugar, then simmer pear chunks with ginger, lime zest, and juice. Spoon mixture into a dish. Top fruit with crumble mixture, leaving space for caramel to bubble.
