Jo Pratt cooks with Bramleys

To celebrate Bramley Apple Week 2013 (3-9th February), Food expert and author, Jo Pratt, has developed a series of six mouth-watering recipes, three savoury and three sweet, which show off the versatility and sublime tangy taste of the Bramley apple. The recipes are quick, easy and include something for all the family.

Bramley Apple and Moroccan Meatball Tagine

A delicious fusion recipe balancing exotic Moroccan flavours with the classic British Bramley

Baked Bramley and Treacle Roly Poly

A fruity twist on the classic comfort pudding

Bramley Apple, Caramel and Ginger Pies

Perfect mince-pie sized treats which children will love – If you happen to have any cooked apple left over that won’t fit into the pastry cases, it can be kept in the fridge for a few days and is delicious eaten with yoghurt and granola for breakfast.

Bramley Apple, Potato and Ham Rosti

A family friendly snack or light lunch dish – if you prefer to make these a vegetarian rösti, simply omit the ham. A tasty addition is to add some finely chopped sundried tomato or if you are making these for kids, they will love a couple of tablespoons of sweetcorn added to the mixture.

Spiced Carrot, Bramley Apple and Lentil Soup

A great lunch dish which can be mildly spiced for children, or a perfect dinner party starter. This soup keeps really well, so any you don’t eat straight away, store in the fridge for up to 3 days, or freeze in individual portions for up to 3 months.
