Cardamom apples

Cardamom apples are a delightful and aromatic dessert or side dish that combines the sweetness of apples with the warm, rich flavors of cardamom and cinnamon. This easy-to-follow recipe uses simple ingredients to create a comforting and flavorful dish perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients:

1/2 cup butter
110g
4 apples
640g
1/2 cup sugar
120g
1 tsp cardamom
5g
1 tsp cinnamon
3g
2 garlic cloves
6g

Instructions:

1. Preparation:
- Peel, core, and slice the apples into thin wedges.
- Mince the garlic cloves finely.
2. Cooking the Apples:
- In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.
- Add the minced garlic to the melted butter. Sauté for about 1-2 minutes, or until fragrant and slightly golden but not burned.
3. Adding the Apples:
- Add the apple wedges to the skillet. Stir to coat them evenly with the butter and garlic mixture.
- Cook the apples over medium heat for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally until they start to soften.
4. Seasoning the Apples:
- Once the apples have softened, sprinkle in the sugar, ground cardamom, and ground cinnamon.
- Stir well to ensure the apples are evenly coated with the sugar and spices.
5. Simmering:
- Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the sugar has caramelized to create a flavorful sauce.
- Stir occasionally to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
6. Serving:
- Once the apples are tender and look glossy with a rich caramelized sauce, remove the skillet from heat.
- Serve the cardamom apples warm as a side dish, a topping for pancakes or waffles, or even over vanilla ice cream for a delightful dessert.

Tips:

- Choose apples that are firm and slightly tart for the best texture and flavor balance.

- Peel the apples for a smoother texture, or leave the skins on for added fiber and a rustic look.

- For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of lemon juice or a pinch of nutmeg to the mix.

- Serve the cardamom apples warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.

- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days and reheated gently before serving.

Cardamom apples are a simple yet delicious dish that will impress your family and friends with its unique blend of spices and the natural sweetness of apples. Follow these tips to perfect this recipe and enjoy a warming, fragrant dessert that's sure to become a favorite.
