Quantity Ingredient
½ cup Water
1 cup Sugar
2 tablespoons Fresh Ginger -- grated
4 larges Sweet-Tart Apples,* Peel,
Core -- cut in 1/2\" slices
1 pint Vanilla Ice Cream

Directions

* Use cooking apples like Macoun with their sweet-tart flavor.

1. Preheat the oven to 400 F. 2. Combine the water, sugar, and ginger in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat and simmer for 5 mins. Let stand for 10 mins. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve. 3. Lightly butter a baking sheet and place the apple slices on it in a single layer. Drizzle the apples with ¼ cup of the ginger syrup. Roast the apples until tender, turning once, about 20 mins. Ladle some of the syrup onto each of 4 plates. Scoop the ice cream into 4 neat rounds and place on the plates. Fan the apple slices around the ice cream and serve immediately. Serves 4.
