Fried Apples - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 lb. tart apples
3 Tbsp. butter (bacon, ham or pork drippings give the apples good flavor)
1/4 c. sugar or sugar to taste

Preparation

Wash, core and slice apples (do not peel).
Place them in a heavy skillet in which the butter or drippings have been melted. Cover and cook over moderate heat until soft (5 to 10 minutes), then uncover and sprinkle with sugar.
Cook, uncovered, until apples are delicately browned on underside.
If overcooked, the apples will fall to pieces.
Serve hot.
