Broiled Brown Sugar Pummelo

Serves 4

Broiled grapefruit was what was for dessert when I was growing up, and it is making a comeback. I like to experiment with the thicker-skinned pummelo for this recipe.

2 pummelos, cut in half and seeded
2 tablespoons light or dark brown sugar
2 tablespoons chopped walnuts

1. Preheat the broiler. Place the fruit halves on a lightly sprayed broiler pan. Divide and spread the sugar evenly on top of each fruit half.

2. Broil until the sugar begins to bubble, but not burn—about 3 minutes.

3. Carefully remove from the oven and place each fruit half on a dessert dish. Divide and sprinkle the nuts on top and serve.
