Apple Compote Recipe

Ingredients:
apples, raw, with skin
butter, without salt
lemon juice, raw
spices, cinnamon, ground
sugars, granulated

Directions:
Instead of applesauce with latkes, this can be served as a chunky topping or possibly pureed into a flavorful fresh applesauce.
When the apples are left in pcs, the compote can be served as a dessert on its own; its especially good served warm with ice cream, lowfat sour cream, or possibly yogurt.
Peel & halve the apples.
Core & cut into thin wedges or possibly slices.
Heat butter in large skillet over medium heat.
Add in apples & saute/fry, turning pcs over from time to time, for about 2 min or possibly till they are coated with butter.
Add in lemon juice and cinnamon, cover & cook over low heat for 5 min, or possibly till liquid begins to come out of the apples.
Uncover & continue cooking over low heat, gently stirring occasionally, for 15-20 min or possibly till apples are tender and begin to fall apart.
Add in 2 tbsp sugar & saute/fry over medium-high heat, turning apples over, about 2 min or possibly just till sugar dissolves.
Remove from heat.
Taste & add in more sugar if necessary; heat, tossing apples gently, till sugar dissolves.
Serve hot or possibly at room temperature to accompany latkes.
Can be kept covered in refrigerator for 2 days.
