To learn that many of them go to waste simply because of the way they look was so distressing that I decided to show you are many apple dishes as I could in one go.  Serve these together on a large platter with some crusty sour dough bread for sharing. 

Ingredients

  • 20 g unsalted butter
  • 2 apples, peeled, cored and diced
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice 
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 1 baby cos heart, leaves separated
  • ¼ cup chopped fresh quandongs 
  • 1 tbsp capers
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
Kohlrabi pickle 
  • 2 tsp sugar
  • ½ garlic clove, thinly sliced
  • ¼ tsp coarsely ground peppercorns
  • 50 ml raspberry vinegar 
  • 100 g peeled kohlrabi, cut into matchsticks
Marinading time: 20 minutes

Instructions

To make the kohlrabi pickle, place the sugar, garlic, peppercorns and vinegar in a small saucepan and stir over low heat until the sugar dissolves. Place the kohlrabi in a bowl, pour over the pickling liquid, toss to coat and stand until ready to use.

Meanwhile, for the buttered apples, melt the butter in a heavy-based saucepan over medium heat. Add the apples and gently sauté for 3 minutes or until slightly softened. Add the lemon juice, season to taste and toss until well coated. Remove from the heat and keep at room temperature.

To serve, place the lettuce leaves on the platter and top with the buttered apples. Add 1 tablespoon drained kohlrabi pickle and the quandongs, followed by the capers and a splash of olive oil.

Cook's Notes

Oven temperatures are for conventional; if using fan-forced (convection), reduce the temperature by 20˚C. | We use Australian tablespoons and cups: 1 teaspoon equals 5 ml; 1 tablespoon equals 20 ml; 1 cup equals 250 ml. | All herbs are fresh (unless specified) and cups are lightly packed. | All vegetables are medium size and peeled, unless specified. | All eggs are 55-60 g, unless specified.
