    I've made this several time, using brandy for the liquor, and either apricot jam or orange marmalade. Definitely prefer the apricot jam. Spices included vanilla bean, cinnamon stick, star anise, cloves, ginger, cardamom, peppercorns. I serve it warm with ginger cookies. It's a lovely lighter option at the end of a meal.

    I made this with a average-sized pineapple. For the liquor I used brandy, and I added a squeeze of lemon to the orange juice as my pineapple was more sweet than tart. Instead of a jar of jelly, I used a few tablespoons of honey; as a result, it was considerably less sweet and had a thinner syrup than if I had used the quantity of jam specified. For spices, I added a cinnamon stick, a star anise, a few slices of fresh ginger, a few pink peppercorns, and some Korean chili flakes. Served with a dollop of creme fruit, which I found necessary to cut the intense flavor of the fruit and syrup. A very good everyday fruit dessert.

    I made this with lime marmalade. None of us liked this dish. Maybe the marmalade was to blame?

    Lovely way to serve pineapple. I used only orange juice, apple jelly, vanilla bean and pink peppercorns and the intensified flavours of both the fruit and syrup were fabulous! However, what I thought was a rather large pineapple shrunk considerably during roasting and served only 4 in the end.
