Serves: 4
Ingredients
  • 2 grapefruits, chilled
  • 1 teaspoon rose water
  • 1 tablespoon melted butter, ghee, or coconut oil
  • ¼ cup lightly packed light brown sugar
  • optional: 2 tablespoons crushed pistachios, ricotta
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven on broil.
  2. Slice the grapefruits in half and using a small knife, cut to loosen the grapefruit segments (and carefully cut around the grapefruit to loosen from the peel, making it easier to eat). Place each half upright on a baking sheet and add ¼ teaspoon of rose water to each grapefruit half, letting it soak in.
  3. In a small bowl, stir together the melted butter and brown sugar. Divide evenly among the tops of the grapefruit halves.
  4. Place the baking sheet with the grapefruits in the oven, about 4 inches from the heat source. Broil for about 3-4 minutes, until the sugar is bubbly and the top begins to brown.
  5. Transfer each half to a plate (or on a tray, if serving). Top with ricotta and crushed pistachios, if desired.
