Steps:

• In saucepan, combine water, ginger, cinnamon, cloves and coriander.
• Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes.
• Add honey and stir until dissolved.
• Strain liquid and allow to cool.
• Slice the star fruit into 8 slices.
• Place star fruit on a baking sheet and sprinkle the brown sugar over them.
• Broil until the sugar bubbles and starts to brown.
• Place stars into individual bowls, 4 each.
• Ladle the gingered broth into each and serve.

Steps:

• Since this is an assortment of fruit served in a broth, count on any single piece of fruit yielding 4 portions. Two peaches, for example, would be more than sufficient. Take your time to clean and slice the fruit as neatly as possible. This is a recipe where presentation counts.
• The fruits can be cut ahead of time. Sprinkle with lemon juice and cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready.
• To make the broth, combine the pineapple juice, lemon juice, honey, ginger and Grand Mariner in a saucepan. Bring quickly to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook 5 minutes before removing from heat. Cool completely.
• When ready to serve, allow 10 to 15 minutes to prepare. Use soup plates with broad, flat bottoms and arrange a mixture of the fruit in a colorful pattern across the bottom of the plate, possibly putting some of the slices in a pinwheel-type arrangements with little mounds of diced fruit or berries in the center. Once you have all the fruit divided among the plates, ladle several tablespoons of the cool broth over the fruit.
• There should be just enough broth in each plate to cover the bottom; it should not be soupy. A possible garnish would be a small scoop of sorbet on each plate and perhaps a sprinkling of grated coconut.

Steps:

• Trim the ends and edges of the star fruit.
• Blend star fruit and ginger with water and lime juice then strain (or not, I don't). Add sugar and serve chilled.

Steps:

• Preheat broiler. Halve and pit the peach and nectarine. Line a shallow baking dish with foil; coat foil with cooking spray. Place fruit cut side down in prepared dish. , Broil 6 in. from the heat for 3 minutes; turn fruit over and sprinkle with brown sugar. Broil until sugar is melted and bubbly, 2-3 minutes longer. Serve warm with whipped cream or ice cream if desired.

Steps:

• Heat broiler with rack set 4 inches from heat. With a paring knife, loosen grapefruit segments from membranes and pith.
• Sprinkle grapefruit with sugar and cinnamon. Broil on a baking sheet until tops are slightly browned, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Top with yogurt, and garnish with more cinnamon.

Steps:

• In a 2-quart saucepan, combine 4 cups of water with the ginger, cinnamon, cloves, and coriander and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer 30 minutes. Add the honey and stir to dissolve. Strain and allow to cool.
• Meanwhile, place a broiler rack about 6 inches from the heat source. Place the star fruit on a baking sheet and sprinkle 1 tablespoon brown sugar over the top. Broil until the sugar bubbles and begins to brown. Place 4 stars in each of 4 shallow bowls, ladle the gingered broth into each, and serve.
