Yield Serves six

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 apples, preferably on the tart side, peeled, cored and cut into sixths
3 ripe but firm pears, peeled, cored and cut into sixths
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice (more to taste)
1 cup apple juice
A handful of golden raisins
2 tablespoons chopped candied ginger
