Picking up a few windfalls in the garden and having bought a tub of stem ginger 'shavings' from the local market I thought the two ingredients would compliment each other in a crumble.

APPLE AND GINGER CRUMBLE

900 g/2lbs dessert apples + 1tbs water + 1tbs sugar

1tbs or more chopped stem ginger

225 g/8 oz plain flour

115 g/4 oz butter

115 g/4 oz caster sugar

1tsp ground ginger

Preheat the oven to 190 C/375 F/Gas Mark 5.
