  • 4 whole star anise
  • 2-inch piece fresh ginger, cut into thin slices

Method

In a large high-sided skillet, combine pineapple juice, star anise and ginger; bring to a boil over medium-high heat.

Add pineapple slices, reduce heat to medium-low, cover and cook, stirring several times, until pineapple is very tender, about 30 minutes.

Uncover and transfer pineapple slices to a serving platter.

Increase heat to medium-high and bring braising liquid to a boil.

Cook, stirring frequently, until reduced to a syrup, about 3 minutes.

Pour over pineapple to serve immediately or chill until ready to serve and enjoy cold.
