Instructions

  1. Peel, core and quarter the apples.
  2. Put them in a large saucepan with the water and lemon juice, then cover and cook over low heat for 20 minutes until tender.
  3. Pass the apples through a food mill or blend them finely.
  4. Return the purée to the saucepan with the sugar and spices, then simmer very gently, uncovered.
  5. Stir often for 40 to 45 minutes, until the mixture thickens and darkens.
  6. Test the consistency by spooning a little onto a cold plate: it should not run.
  7. Pour into sterilised jars, seal and leave to cool.

Variations and tips

Spiced version. Add a pinch of ground ginger and a pinch of nutmeg along with the other spices.
