  • 6 Braeburn apples

  • 120g sugar
  • 60g unsalted butter
  • 1 ready rolled sheet of puff pastry

Utensils

  • Step 1

    Peel and core the apples then cut them into pieces, quarter the figs and set both aside

  • Step 2

    Roll the puff pastry sheet out and use the lid of the pan to cut a circle out of it

  • Step 3

    Preheat the pan on medium-high heat and add the sugar, cook for 3-4 mins mixing continuously until it dissolves and starts bubbling. Continue cooking until the colour of the sugar deepens and bubbles become bigger. When the caramel starts smoking it is ready – remove from the heat and mix in the chilled butter until melted

  • Step 4

    Mix in the apples and the pistachios with the caramel, then arrange the figs between the apples

  • Step 5

    Gently place the pastry on top and using a spoon tuck the edges around the apples

  • Step 6

    Cut a couple of small holes in the pastry using a knife to allow steam to escape and bake in a preheated oven at 190ºC for 30-40 mins until golden brown and crispy

  • Step 7

    Once ready place a serving dish on top of the pan and flip the tarte tatin upside down on it. Cut in 6 pieces and serve with ice-cream and dusting of icing sugar
