Preparation

Step 1

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt butter and sauté ginger until it softens, add pears, cinnamon stick and cloves, and sauté until pear chunks start to soften.
Add orange juice, water, sugar and bring to a simmer, then turn heat to low and cook until liquid reduces to about half its volume. This should take about 15-20 minutes.
Stir in grated nutmeg and turn off heat, cover and set aside until ready to serve.
Before serving in a bowl as a condiment for the samosas, discard cinnamon stick and cloves.
