Rocket & Sliced Pear Salad With Caramelized Balsamic Vinegar image

Found this online a long time ago but have changed the recipe to add the caramelized balsamic vinegar. The balsamic will thicken on reducing.

Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 bunch rocket (Aguilar)
2 pears, finely sliced
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 cup goat cheese, crumbled (or shaved Parmesan or crumbled feta if you prefer)
balsamic vinegar
black pepper

Steps:

  • Sprinkle pear slices with a little lemon juice and arrange over rocket on a medium sized platter.
  • Sprinkle with cheese and drizzle with the caramelized balsamic vinegar.
  • Serve immediately with ground black pepper.
  • To caramelize balsamic vinegar, simply reduce a 500 ml bottle of Balsamic Vinegar down to about 150 ml (2/3 cup) over high heat for approx 15 minutes - it will keep for several weeks in the pantry or you can caramelize less to use for this salad only.
