Buttered apples and blueberries with honey mascarpone
Photo: Marco Del Grande

Ingredients

  • 60g butter
  • 2 large red apples, halved, cored and sliced
  • 2 tbsp castor sugar
  • 120g blueberries
  • 2 tsp finely grated orange zest and 2 tbsp orange juice
  • 250g mascarpone
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 x 240g unfilled sponge slab (sold at supermarkets)
  • Icing sugar, to dust

Method

Make quick apple tarts by cutting circles of purchased puff pastry using a saucer as a guide. Toss thinly sliced apple with lemon juice and arrange on pastry, leaving a small border around the edge. Dot with butter, sprinkle with sugar and bake in a hot oven until golden. Serve with a dollop of natural yoghurt.

Toss sliced apples with a squeeze of lemon juice and add sliced celery. Stir in mayonnaise (thinned with a little hot water if necessary) and top with toasted walnuts and sliced avocado. Serve with barbecued lamb and mint sausages.

Cook sliced apples and chopped rhubarb in a heavy-based saucepan with a splash of water. Add sugar and finely grated lime rind and cook until apples are tender, stirring often. Cool and serve with muesli.
