Comments
This pudding takes me back to my childhood when I remember my mum serving us a bowl full of fragrant lemony apples stewed with sago and finished with pouring cream. It is simple to make, cheap to buy and will surely satisfy you on these cold nights.
Thanks to Willowbrook Orchard for providing the apples used in the demonstration at the market.
