ready baked pastry case 450gms
(l lb) bramley cooking apples - peel, core and slice

2 egg whites
100gms (4ozs) caster sugar
A few spots pink food colouring
Set
oven at gas 6/450 F/220 C/Aga roasting oven.
Cook
the apples and blackberries over a gentle heat with lid on
pan, add sugar to taste and leave to cool a little while making
the meringue.
Whisk the egg whites with a few spots of pink food colouring,
until stiff and dry (of a cottonwool texture), then fold in
the caster sugar.
Fill
the flan case with the cooked apple and blackberry mixture
and cover with the meringue. Bake in the pre-set oven until
the meringue begins to brown.
Serve
warm or cold with single cream.
Lazy
Cook tips - the flavours of this pudding are excellent.
It can be baked in the hot oven and when the meringue begins
to brown the temperature can be reduced to gas 3/300 fF/150
C/Aga simmering oven to allow the meringue to become more
crisp.
As
a Lazy Cook I always keep a store of ready baked flan cases,
these are available from most delicatessens or supermarkets.
With
such ingredients to hand the pudding is made in minutes.
