My cousin Bibs Soles learned to make this her father-in-law, my late uncle mike. He never used to measure the ingredeints and neither does she.." Peel and core apples. cut in quarters. Chop in food processor until finely grated. Transfer to a bowl and stir in lemon juice, if using.

Add nuts to food processor and chop until finely chopped but with a few little chunks of nuts. Stir into apples. Add wine slowly - a few tablespoons at a time - until the mixture looks like a paste.
