2 medium tart apples, peeled, cored & sliced
1/4 C water
2 Tb brown sugar
1 Tb cider vinegar
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/8 tsp cloves
1/8 tsp ginger
1/8 tsp salt

1. Put all ingredients in a microwavable bowl and stir to distribute.
2. Cover and microwave on high for 4-6 minutes, depending on the power of your microwave oven.
3. Remove cover, stir, replace cover and microwave on high for another 4-6 minutes.
4. Transfer everything to a blender or food processor. Process until smooth. Serve warm. Refrigerate any leftover.

Serves 2 to 4, depending on what else is served.

Note: This recipe is tweaked from one found in the January/February deadtree issue of Cooking Light.

Note: I use Granny Smith apples.

This works well served with pork.
