Carmel Sauce
- In a small saucepan, simmer ½ cup of the heavy cream with the ginger for about 10 minutes. 
Set aside.
- In another small heavy saucepan, cook the sugar with the lemon juice over low heat, stirring frequently, until the sugar caramelizes to a light brown colour, 10—15 minutes. Stir in the remaining 2 tbsps of heavy cream. Remove from heat.
- Strain the cream into a bowl and whisk in the caramel until smooth. Serve warm.
