Apple sauce
Perfect for pork and really quick and easy, especially if you happen to have an apple tree in your garden. Some bottled sauces have a glutinous texture. This is fresh and clean tasting.

Serving suggestions
Serve at room temperature
Freezing
This is an ideal candidate for freezing. Make it when apples are plentiful and bag up and freeze in portion sizes to match your family.
Even better if you can vacuum pack them first.
-
vacuum packed apple slices ready for freezing
-
Stew for about 15 minutes
Variations
I notice that my Phaidon Silver Spoon cookery book also suggest adding a tablespoon of grated horseradish root which I will have to try once mine has grown enough to harvest.
Or try a simple sauce!
