Pip, pip, hooray for one of Britain's best fruit! Delia is a great fan of the Bramley apple and other home-grown varieties and has incorporated apples into many of her recipes, both sweet and savoury. From homely apple pie to warming Curried Parsnip and Apple Soup, the apple proves itself to be one of our most versatile ingredients.
