Ingredients- 1 Apple (medium-sized)
- 20g Butter
- 10g Chopped peanuts or nuts (optional, for added texture)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, wash one medium-sized apple thoroughly. You can choose to peel it or leave the skin on, depending on your preference. Both methods yield delicious results.
Step 2
Once washed, slice the apple into rounds, about 0.7 to 1 cm thick. Cutting them into pretty, uniform circles makes the dish visually appealing.
Step 3
Carefully remove the core and seeds from each apple slice. You can use a small knife, a melon baller, or a cookie cutter for a neat finish. This step ensures a cleaner eating experience.
Step 4
Now, melt 20g of unsalted butter in a frying pan over medium heat. The butter will add a wonderful richness and aroma to the apples.
Step 5
Once the butter is melted and slightly bubbly, add the prepared apple slices and the chopped peanuts (or nuts) to the pan. Reduce the heat to low and cook gently. Be sure to avoid burning the apples; the goal is to let them soften and caramelize slightly.
Step 6
As the apples begin to soften and release their sweet aroma, sprinkle a little sugar over them, if desired. The sugar will help create a lovely caramelization, deepening the sweetness. (A pinch of cinnamon at this stage is also highly recommended for extra flavor!)
