Ingredients
- 1 large Ruby Red grapefruit
- 2 tablespoons golden brown sugar
- fresh mint for garnish, washed and dried
Instructions
- Cut the grapefruit in half, horizontally. Then use a grapefruit knife, or sharp paring knife to cut around each segment, inside the membranes, and around the inside of the pith. If the halves are wobbly, slice about ¼ to ½-inch off of the bottom to create a base.
- Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of the sugar over each grapefruit half.
- Then use a small kitchen blow torch or the broiler to brown the sugar. If you are using the torch, simply turn it on medium-high and evenly go around until all the sugar has caramelized. If you are using the broiler, place the grapefruit halves on a baking sheet, and adjust a rack so it's directly under the flame. Broil the grapefruit just until the sugar caramelizes, about 1 minute. Watch it carefully, as it can burn easily.
- Garnish with mint and serve.
