Steps:
- Put a small plate in the freezer. Tip the chopped apple and caster sugar into a large saucepan along with 350ml of water and bring to a simmer, stirring to dissolve the sugar.
- Cook gently, stirring regularly, for 30 mins until the apples have collapsed.
- Stir in the lemon juice, add the cinnamon stick and simmer gently for another 2-3 mins until the mixture is thick and glossy.
- Remove the small plate from the freezer and drop a little of the mix onto it. Leave for a few seconds - it should be fairly firm. If it's still a little runny, put the pan back of the heat and simmer for another 10-15 mins. Put the plate back in the freezer and test again, it should now be ready.
- Divide between clean, sterilised jars and seal. Will keep for three months in a cool, dry place. Once opened, chill and use within one month.

Tips for Making Apple Preserves with Cardamom:
* **Choose the right apples:** Use firm and tart apples for making apple preserves, such as Granny Smith, Braeburn, or Honeycrisp. These apples hold their shape well during cooking and have a good balance of sweetness and acidity. * **Use fresh cardamom pods:** Freshly ground cardamom pods will give your preserves the best flavor. If you don't have access to fresh pods, you can use ground cardamom, but it will not be as flavorful. * **Don't overcook the apples:** The apples should be cooked until they are soft but still hold their shape. If you overcook them, they will become mushy. * **Use a water bath canner to seal the jars:** This is the safest way to seal jars of homemade preserves. A water bath canner is a large pot with a rack that holds the jars. The jars are filled with preserves and then placed in the canner. The canner is filled with water and brought to a boil. The jars are processed in the boiling water for a specific amount of time, depending on the recipe. ###Conclusion:
Apple preserves with cardamom are a delicious and versatile condiment. They can be enjoyed on toast, crackers, or yogurt. They can also be used as a filling for pies, tarts, and turnovers. With a little planning and effort, you can easily make your own apple preserves at home. So next time you have a surplus of apples, give this recipe a try!
