austrian-apfelkrenA typical Austrian condiment traditionally served with meats.

2 Tbsp. lemon juice, freshly squeezed
fresh horseradish, grated or the equivalent of prepared horseradish (50 g)
1 large tart apple, peeled and cored
sea salt
caster sugar
double cream (50 mL)
sour cream (50 mL)

Stir 1 Tbsp. of the lemon juice into the grated horseradish (to stop it from going brown). If using prepared horseradish skip this step.

Grate the apple and mix with the horseradish and the remaining 1 Tbsp. of lemon juice.

Add salt and sugar to taste and leave to stand for 10 minutes.

Lightly beat the double cream and fold in the sour cream until combined.

Mix this into the horseradish mixture and serve.
