Apple sauce
- Preparation and cooking time
- Total time
- Easy
- Serves 4-6
Ingredients
- 2 (about 600g) bramley apples, peeled, cored and chopped into chunks
- 1 tbsp golden caster sugar
- ½ lemon, juiced
- 25g butter, optional
Method
- STEP 1
Tip the apples into a saucepan with the sugar, lemon juice and about 50ml water. Bring everything to a simmer, then cover the pan and cook the apples gently for about 10 mins until they collapse. Beat with a spoon to break them up completely. You now have perfectly good chunky apple sauce that needs nothing more than a grind of pepper.
- STEP 2
If you want a smoother, richer sauce you can push the apples through a sieve and reheat the smooth apple purée with the butter before serving.
