From this dish's name it's obvious that it contains pears. However, it certainly doesn't contain Helene. It is also sometimes called Pears Belle Helene.
This is a dessert dish that uses pears as a base. Firm dessert pears such as Bartlett are the best types. The pears need to be cooked, either by purchasing them that way, or using fresh and cooking them.
To serve, they are halved and served with vanilla ice cream as well as a chocolate sauce.
There are easy ways and hard ways of making this dish. The easy way is to buy tinned pears and pre-made chocolate sauce. The hard way is, of course, to make everything from scratch. The easy way can be done quite simply if the ingredients are already to hand, and most will keep quite well.
