Another variation of applesauce using Granny Smiths. An Asian/Australian/English confluence, this version is sweeter and more like an applesauce and less like a chutney in comparison to my other Granny Smith applesauce recipe. A Cookgirl Original dedicated to my Aussie friends. Ingredients:
1 lb granny smith apple |
1 teaspoon english lavender, crushed to a fine powder |
1 -2 teaspoon grated galangal (substitute fresh ginger if galangal unavailable) |
1 dash salt |
1/4 cup apple cider |
2 tablespoons golden syrup, to taste |
Directions:
1. Stovetop: Place all ingredients in a large pot and bring to boil. Cover and simmer on low for about 1 1/2 to 2 hours or until fruit is soft enough to puree. 2. Use a hand held immersion blender to puree the apple mixture or puree the apples in batches using an electric blender. 3. Crockpot: Place all ingredients in a crockpot and cook on LOW for 4-6 hours or until fruit is soft. 4. Use a hand held immersion blender to puree or puree in batches using an electric blender. 5. Adjust seasoning. Serve warm or chilled. (If you wish, sprinkle a small amount of powdered lavender on each serving.). 6. Freezes well. 7. Yield is estimated. |
