Ingredients

1 qt Large green apple

1 qt Red crisp apple

3 tbsp Oil

1 ½ tbsp Mustard seeds

¼ tbsp Asafoetida

½ qt Medium onion roughly chopped

2 qts Dried bay leaves

1 qt Small cinnamon stick

2 qts Green chilies finely chopped

5 qts Dried red chilies

1 tbsp Garam masala

¼ tbsp Turmeric powder

1 tbsp Chili powder

2 qts Garlic cloves finely chopped

1 tbsp Ginger chopped

2 tbsp Sugar

¼ cup Coconut milk

⅓ cup Water

Salt as per taste

Instructions

Wash and cut apples into quarters.

Heat the oil over medium heat in a non-stick saucepan.

Add bay leaves, green and red chilli and mustard seeds, asafoetida, cinnamon stick and sauté for a few minutes then add onion, ginger-garlic and cook till onions are slightly brown.

Add the garam masala powder, turmeric and chilli powder and mix it well, just until you start to smell the spices.

Add the apple quarters, salt and sugar and cook on medium-high heat for a few minutes while gently coating the apples all over with the spices.

Cook the apples for about 10 minutes - uncovered, stirring occasionally. The apples will start to soften slightly.

Add the coconut milk and water and stir through with the apples. Return to the stove for another 5 - 10 minutes covered, until the apples soften.

Taste and season with more salt if desired.

Carefully stir through to coat the apples with the sauce/gravy - since the apples have softened and you don't want them to break up (add more water if you like more sauce).
