Caramelized Cardamom Apples With Pistachio Cream
- Cream
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons unsalted pistachios, finely chopped
- Apples
- 1/4 lb unsalted butter
- 4 medium tart apples
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
- 1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
- 2/3 cup sugar
- 3 tablespoons blanched slivered almonds
- 2 tablespoons chopped walnuts
- Whip the cream lightly in a bowl till it just holds its shape, but is not stiff at all.
- Fold half of the pistachio nuts into the cream, cover and refrigerate.
- Melt the butter over low heat in a large nonstick skillet. Take the pan off the heat.
- Peel, core and slice the apples thinly, dropping the slices into the butter as you cut them.
- Fold them into the butter as you go so that they do not discolor. (If you like, you could keep the pan over very low heat as you do this.).
- Add the cardamom, cinnamon, cloves, sugar, almonds and walnuts.
- Cook on medium heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring gently as you do so.
- Turn the heat to high; cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring very gently now and then, till apples have caramelized lightly.
- Serve on individual plates with a dollop of cream partially on, partially off the apples.
- Sprinkle remaining pistachios over the cream.
