Toffee Apples, Homemade Toffe Apple Recipe
by Tarla Dalal
If this dessert cannot win you over, then nothing can. Indeed, the Toffee Apples is something special, incomparable with common Desserts .
Deep-fried apples are dipped in a caramelized sugar syrup and immediately dunked in iced water, giving rise to a fantastic dish that is richly deep and crisp outside and mildly sweet and soft inside.
This contrast in textures is a wonderful experience that you will thoroughly enjoy. A few sesame seeds added to the caramel syrup is a special stroke in this masterpiece, which helps to highlight the sweetness of the syrup while also balancing it well with its nutty taste.
