Combine sugar, water and lemon, rind. Boil 3 minutes, remove rind. Drop in sections of apple, pared and cored. Cook slowly in syrup until clear, covered part of the time. Lift sections out carefully so as not to break. Measure syrup, add water to make up to 1 1/2 cups. Soak gelatine in cold water. Add to boiling syrup and lemon juice. When partially set, add apple sections, carefully folding them into the jelly. Pile into sherbet glasses and serve with custard sauce or whipped cream. |
