Ingredients

  • 2 Baking apples such as Jonathan (or any type you have is fine)
  • 400 ml White wine (cheap wine is fine)
  • 30 grams Light brown sugar (or white sugar)
  • 1 five 5 cm long pieces Lemongrass

Method

  • Cut the apples into 8 wedges each and peel (or cut them into any size you like.)
  • Put them in one layer, if at all possible on the bottom of an enamel pan.
  • Cut up the lemongrass, and put into a fillable tea bag.
  • (The lemongrass here is homegrown).
  • Add the wine, light brown sugar and lemongrass to the pan.
  • Simmer for at least 15 minutes over medium-low heat.
  • I just finished one bottle of wine, so I opened another.
  • I used a mixture of Suntory Delica wine and a German wine.
  • Both were around 300 yen each.
  • "Easy!
  • Grown-up fall colored apples simmered in wine" has a pretty color.
  • Try using equal parts of white and red wine to simmer, the color will be somewhere in between.
  • If you add cloves and cinnamon, it will take on a delicious aroma.
