Title: Mango, Pear and Ginger Crumble
Description: Whilst cleaning out and organising during our move, I found this recipe tucked in my collection. I made it for a dinner party, and it was a resounding success. There are many versions of crumble, but this one is a bit different. You do need to use ripe fresh mangoes, but can get away with canned pears. I‘ve also used apricots or peaches, also good. Hope you enjoy my version:
Serves: 4 servings.
Ingredients:
large can of pears drained, (save the juice). Tbsp demerara or brown sugar. Mangoes, peeled and roughly chopped. 1 piece stem ginger finely chopped. For the topping: ¾ cup all purpose flour. Tbsp butter. ¼ cup demerara or brown sugar. Cup chopped nuts, pecans or walnuts(optional).

Instructions:
Heat oven to 350 F. Put the pears in a large saucepan with the sugar, and 4 Tbsp of the reserved syrup. Cook over gentle heat 2-3 minutes, remove from the heat and stir in the mangoes and stem ginger. Spoon into medium baking/serving dish and cool. Rub the butter into the flour, add the sugar and optional nuts. Sprinkle over the top of the fruit (don‘t pat down) and bake for 30 minutes.
