Preparation
- Step 1
Peel, core and halve the pears. Toss them with the lemon juice.
- Step 2
Bring the water and sugar to a boil in a saucepan. When the sugar has dissolved, add the pears, lower the heat and simmer until the pears are just tender, about 10 minutes.
- Step 3
Drain the pears, transfer them to a shallow serving dish and pour the sherry over them. Turn them in the sherry once or twice. Serve the pears while they are still warm.
