    Cuisine from Christophe

    Hi,
    I think it's DIYer who wanted to get some recipe, you are lucky I have found in my smartphone a picture of a surprise I did recently at home for the family.
    In English, I would call it "Dressed apples"



    So you need to take some good size apples, enough to fill a dish that can go to the oven.
    Peel them and remove the heart, making a hole from top to bottom without slicing the apple.
    Prepare a dough, the same kind of dough you could do for an apple pie.
    Separate one chunk of dough for each apple, and roll it in a round shape, so that you can wrap the apple.
    You can glue the edge with a little water or milk or egg if necessary.
    Then you put all the apples in the dish, and you fill the heart holes with brown caster sugar.
    Then you put a nice nut of butter (salted butter in my area) on to so that it will caramelize (doed this word exist in English ???)
    And, last but not least, but for the parents only (I put a sign to distinguish the apples for the parents), you soak the sugar with brown rum....

    20 minutes in a hot oven.

    Can go very well with vanilla ice cream, in a hot and cold fashion...

    Looks delicious!

    I've always enjoyed cooking (and eating!) and would call this sort of dish an "Apple Dumpling". Yes, "caramelize" is used in English in reference to melted and browned sugar.

    You can make these for me anytime - with rum, please!!

    Wowowow! My mouth's watering already. Thanks! As a foodie, I like to try new tastes, and I have to admit that I don't have enough of French food.

    The recipe with butter and brown sugar must be delicious and I like the way it looks. Adding vanilla ice cream is the only way to go and my favorite vanilla ice cream in California is Bryers Natural Vanilla with real flecks of vanilla bean.

    Great suggestion on that vanilla ice cream! Although I'm watching my diet (a little) after the holidays, this has prodded me to indulge in a little apple pie and ice cream. Vanilla, of course.
