2 tbsp water

grated zest of orange or lemon
handful of raisins, chopped dried

method:

First, decide if you’re making plain apple sauce, or a flavoured compôte. For the latter, choose your ingredient now!
Place the sliced Bramley apples, sugar, water and your chosen optional ingredient(s) in large pan with a tight fitting lid, then place over a gentle heat and slowly bring to the boil.
Stir, then cover and simmer for five minutes or until the Bramley slices have become fluffy and started to dissolve. Remove from the heat and leave to cool.
