Number Of Ingredients 9

3 tablespoons quick-cooking tapioca
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup honey
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
2 cups milk
2 large nectarines (about 10 ounces total), each sliced into 10 wedges
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
4 sprigs fresh mint, (optional)

Steps:

  • Combine tapioca, sugar, 2 tablespoons honey, salt, eggs, and milk in a medium saucepan, and whisk to combine. Let stand, without stirring, for about 5 minutes. Cook over medium heat, stirring, until mixture comes to a full boil.
  • Transfer to a medium bowl set over a bowl of ice water. Let stand to cool, stirring occasionally, 12 to 15 minutes. When cool, pudding can be refrigerated for up to 1 day before serving.
  • Meanwhile, heat remaining 2 tablespoons honey in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add nectarine wedges, and sprinkle with ground ginger. Cook until fruit is just tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Divide the pudding among four dishes and spoon nectarines over. Top each with a sprig of mint, if desired.

This tapioca dish with sauteed nectarines is a delightful combination of textures and flavors. I love how the chewy tapioca pearls complement the juicy, caramelized nectarines. The cinnamon and nutmeg add a warm, comforting touch.
