Spice Roasted Delicata Squash with Port Reduction has a lot of great flavors. It has tender delicata squash that has been roasted with cinnamon and nutmeg and a sweet and sour port reduction that has been drizzled on top. This side dish is simple and classy, and it only needs 4 ingredients.

Ingredients: 2 delicata squash, halved and seeded. 2 tbsp olive oil. 1 tsp ground cinnamon. 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg. 1/2 cup port wine.

Instructions: Turn on the oven and heat it up to 400F 200C. Cut the delicata squash in half lengthwise and widthwise into half-moons that are 1/2 inch thick. Add the delicata squash slices to a large bowl. Add the olive oil, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg. Toss the squash slices until they are well covered. Place the squash slices on a baking sheet that has been lined with parchment paper so that they fall flat. Place the squash in an oven that has already been heated. Roast it for 20 to 25 minutes, or until it is soft and the edges have turned caramelized. While that is going on, heat the port wine in a small saucepan over medium-low. It will take about 10 to 15 minutes of cooking until the port is reduced by half and slightly thickened. After the squash is done roasting, put it on a serving platter and drizzle the port reduction over it. As a fancy and tasty side dish, serve the Spice Roasted Delicata Squash with Port Reduction. Have fun! This dish is great for holidays or special events because it adds a bit of sweetness and spice to your keto meal.

The sweet Asian pears, warm spices, and rich port reduction in these Asian Pear Tartlets make for a delicious mix of flavors. They are a classy dessert that can be served at any event.

Ingredients: 6 Asian pears, peeled, cored, and thinly sliced. 1 package of frozen puff pastry, thawed. 1/4 cup granulated sugar. 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon. 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg. 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves. 1/4 cup port wine. 1/4 cup water. 1 tablespoon honey. 1 teaspoon lemon juice. 1 tablespoon cornstarch dissolved in 2 tablespoons water.

Instructions: Before you start cooking, heat the oven to 375F 190C. Put some flour on a surface and roll out the puff pastry. Then, cut it into 6 squares that are all the same size. Put the squares of pastry on a baking sheet that has parchment paper on it. Slice the Asian pears and put them in a bowl with sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. Stir the pears around until they are well covered. Spread the pear mixture out evenly on the squares of pastry, leaving a little space around the edges. Put it in an oven that has already been heated up and bake it for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and the pears are soft. Make the spiced port reduction while the tartlets are baking. Put the water, honey, lemon juice, and port wine in a small saucepan. Over medium heat, bring the mixture to a simmer. Then, lower the heat to low and let it simmer for about 10 minutes, or until it gets a little thicker. Add the cornstarch mixture and stir it in. Simmer for another two to three minutes, or until the sauce is the thickness you want it to be. Take the tartlets out of the oven and let them cool down a bit after they're done baking. Before serving, pour the spiced port reduction over the hot tartlets. Have fun with these tasty Asian Pear Tartlets with Spiced Port Reduction!
