Milk would probably alter the texture Griffo4 - what about cream with a little lemon juice or vinegar.It does sound interesting.Washoping Pam would try it and & report back.Maybe you could please if you are going to try it first.

Hi Cooks l have got all the ingredients and l cooked up some granny smith apples but they have gone to pulp, will that be ok or do l go and pick another variety of apple and what sort would give me diced apple? l was thinking of using my stewing apple and just putting it in raw and diced up as when you add any heat it goes to pulp? Any thoughts greatly appreciated as l am going to make it tomorrow to take to a birthday on sunday

Not sure if Braeburns are around yet. If you are dicing, dont dice it too small and you would not need to cook it long at all. Best to bring up to heat, then turn off and pop the lid on, check it frequently. Or failing that, You nuy canned pie apples diced.
