For the fennel and ginger ice cream, toast the fennel seeds in a dry frying pan. Bring the double cream, toasted fennel and sugar to a boil. Remove from the heat and leave aside for 10 minutes
Whisk the egg yolks until smooth, then add to the warm double cream, whisking constantly. Pass through a fine sieve, transfer to a freezer container and freeze overnight
Poach the pears for 20 minutes or until soft. Remove the pears from the liquid and add the frozen mixed berries and sugar
250g of frozen mixed berries
50g of caster sugar

Bring back to a simmer and reduce the cooking liquid until slightly thickened. Cut the bottom off the pears to allow them to stand upright

To plate, place a pear on the plate, spoon the berry coulis over the pear and serve warm with a scoop of fennel and ginger ice cream, a sprinkling of chopped candied ginger and a sprig of mint
