Meanwhile, make the red cabbage purée. Place the olive oil, red cabbage and shallots into a pan over a medium heat and sweat for 10 minutes. Add the cranberries and port, bring to a simmer and braise until the cabbage is tender and the port has reduced by 3/4
Whilst the port is reducing, prepare the pear tarte Tatin. Peel the pear, cut in half lengthwise and remove the core. Place the butter in a small pan with the caster sugar and vanilla pod. Cook slowly over a low heat until caramelised
Add the 2 pear halves cut-side down and cover each pear with the puff pastry circles. Bake in the oven for 20 minutes, or until the pastry is crisp and golden
