How to Make Ouzo Poached Cherries With Waffles
- In a medium saucepan, combine 1/2 cup sugar and 1/2 cup water. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, for 3-4 minutes, or until the sugar dissolves completely.
- Increase the heat to high and bring the mixture to a rolling boil.
- Add 1 cup fresh cherries (pitted), 2 sprigs fresh mint, and 2 tablespoons ouzo.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer gently, stirring occasionally, for 5-6 minutes, or until the syrup slightly thickens and coats the back of a spoon.
- Remove the mint sprigs and discard.
- While the cherries simmer, warm your waffles in a toaster or waffle iron.
- Divide the waffles among serving plates. Top each serving with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
- Spoon the ouzo-poached cherries and their syrup generously over the ice cream and waffles.
- Serve immediately and enjoy the delightful combination of warm, crispy waffles, sweet cherries, and the unique anise flavor of ouzo.
