Fried Apples - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 lb. tart cooking apples
3 Tbsp. fat (butter or bacon, ham or pork drippings, give the apples a good flavor)
sugar

Preparation

Wash, core and slice into rings or quarters, but do not peel, the apples.
Place them in a heavy skillet in which fat has been melted.
Cover and cook over moderate heat until soft (5 to 10 minutes); then uncover and sprinkle with sugar and cook uncovered until the apples are delicately browned on under side.
If overcooked, the apples will fall to pieces.
Lift out carefully with a pancake turner.
Serve hot.
Makes 5 servings.
