Ingredients

Servings: 4

750 g sour apples (e.g. Cox Orange)
7-10 Tbsp juice of 1/2 lemon
50 g + 100 g sugar
1 package Vanilla sugar
1/4 l apple juice
50 g Chocolate cookies (ready to buy)
2 fresh cold protein
7-10 Tbsp Icing sugar

Directions

1
Peel, quarter, core and dice apples. Mix immediately in a pot with lemon juice. Add 50 g sugar, vanilla sugar and apple juice. Bring to the boil covered and simmer over a low heat for about 5 minutes until the apples are soft but not yet crushed.
2
Pour into an ovenproof dish and let it cool down.
3
In the meantime, roughly chop the cookies for the meringue. Beat the egg whites until stiff, adding 1 pinch of salt and 100 g sugar. Continue beating until the sugar has dissolved and the beaten egg white is firm enough to cut, i.e. if it can be cut with a knife.
4
Fold in cookies. Spread loosely on the apple compote. Brown very briefly with a kitchen gas burner or under the hot oven grill. Dust with icing sugar.
