First you need to wash and peel the apples. Then grab your grater and grate the apples. Fry them in a little oil until you get some sauce and let them soak well.

After they are cooked, strain the sauce. Mash the apples and turn them into a puree. Keep the apple sauce.

Stir 2 times. Fruits should not be cooked for too long, only enough to let their flavor into the sauce. If you want, you can add a little flour dissolved in 3 tablespoons of water and a little sauce. (Thickening sauce is optional and depends on the amount of sauce that remains in the pan).
