Method

Preheat the oven to 200°C.

Combine the sugar, spices, and water in a heavy-based pan.

Bring to a boil while stirring until sugar dissolves.

Simmer for 8-10 minutes until the mixture thickens into a syrup.

Strain the syrup into a jug and discard the whole spices.

Lay the pineapple pieces on a roasting tray and drizzle with two thirds of the syrup.

Roast for 8-10 minutes while basting regularly with the remaining syrup.

Serve two pineapple pieces per plate with a scoop of ice cream.
