Ingredients
- 2-3 apple
- 3 tablespoons butter unsalted
- 4 large egg
- 2 tablespoons heavy whipping cream
- 2 teaspoons rosewater
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- granulated sugar or powdered sugar, for garnish
- lemon fresh wedges for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat your oven’s broiler. Core the apples with a coring tool...
- then slice them into thin rounds. I left the skin on the apples because the recipe doesn’t specify to “pare” them. If you prefer, you can peel the apples before slicing.
- Melt the butter over medium heat until hot, being careful not to let the butter brown or burn. Add apple slices to the skillet. Fry them for about 5 minutes, turning once, until they soften and begin browning at the edges.
- While apples fry, beat the eggs together with the cream, rosewater, nutmeg, and 2 tbsp sugar.
- When apples are ready, pour the egg mixture evenly over the top of the apples. Cook the tansey for about 3 minutes till the bottom solidifies.
- Place skillet in the oven under the broiler. Let it cook for 2-3 minutes longer till the egg mixture is cooked through. Use an oven mitt to remove the skillet.
- Turn the apple tansey onto a large flat plate. Sprinkle it with sugar and splash it with fresh lemon juice. Serve garnished with lemon wedges or sliced lemon rounds, if desired.
Notes
- You will also need: a seasoned cast iron or nonstick skillet
