    This was my take on a beautiful recipe from Green Kitchen Stories. I've just added a little extra sweetness and some rosewater, which I find makes the apples sing!

    Ingredients

    • 1 kg apples, chopped with skins on
    • 1½ – 2 cups water
    • 2 tbsp fresh ginger, finely chopped
    • 2 tsp ground cardamom
    • 2 cinnamon sticks, tied with kitchen string so you don’t loose them in the pot
    • ½ orange, juice & zest
    • 2 tbsp honey
    • 2 tsp rosewater

    Directions

    1. Place the chopped apples, water and the rest of the ingredients into a large saucepan.
    2. Bring to the boil and then leave on a gentle boil for 40 minutes, stirring occasionally until you get a consistency that you're happy with and the apples are well cooked through.
    3. Cover your glass jars in hot water in the sink to sterilse a bit and put the compote in while they're still hot.
    4. Once cool, keep in the refrigerator and it will last for about a week. Because there isn’t a lot of sugar in this it won’t keep.
