By nabylb

Peach Melba is a classic dessert that combines poached peaches, raspberry sauce, and vanilla ice cream for a refreshing treat.

Prep: 15 min · Serves 4

Ingredients

• 4 whole ripe peaches
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 2 cups water
• 1 cup fresh raspberries
• 4 scoops vanilla ice cream
• 1 tbsp lemon juice

Method

1. Bring water and sugar to a boil in a saucepan to create a syrup.
2. Add the peaches to the boiling syrup and poach for about 5 minutes until tender.
3. Remove the peaches from the syrup and let them cool slightly before peeling and slicing them.
4. In a separate saucepan, combine raspberries and lemon juice, and cook over medium heat until the raspberries break down and form a sauce, about 5 minutes.
5. Strain the raspberry sauce to remove seeds, if desired.
6. To serve, place sliced peaches in a bowl, drizzle with raspberry sauce, and top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
