Procedure

  • Peel apples and slice it into four.
  • Remove the seeds and place all the apples in a bowl.
  • Add lemon juice and 1/3 cup of sugar and mix well.
  • Keep it aside for 30 minutes. The apples will let out water and you need to discard it.
  • In a pan mix together butter and remaining sugar.
  • Keep on stirring until the sugar melts and starts changing colour.
  • Keep stirring and the sauce will become dark. Once it reaches the perfect colour, add the apples to the sauce.
  • Keep on stirring and allow the apples to cook until tender.
  • It will take nearly 30 minutes to cook the apples on medium low flame.
  • Now remove the apple from flame.
  • Preheat oven to 190°C.
  • In a 10" cake tin, arrange the apples with the round side down.
  • Roll out the cold puff pastry into a circle.
  • Cut out an inch larger than the tin.
  • Place the pastry on the apple and tuck the sides inside the pan.
  • Bake in oven for 35 minutes.
  • Now increase temperature to 200°C.
  • Bake for 5-10 minutes.
  • Remove the tin from oven and allow it to sit on counter until the syrup stops bubbling.
  • Place a large serving plate on the tin and carefully flip it. Be very careful as the syrup will spill out. Do it on top of the sink if possible.
  • Slice it and serve it hot along with a dollop of unsweetened whipped cream.
