 Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  4                    Dessert apples
  2       oz           Brown sugar
  2       oz           Raisins
                       Cinnamon to taste
  1                    Beaten egg
    1/2   pt           Cream, whipped
  1       pk           Puff pastry (12 oz)

 (Inspired by James Joyce's "Ulysses")

 Preheat the oven to 400°F. Peel and core the apples. Stuff the centers
 with a mixture of brown sugar, raisins and cinnamon. Roll out the
 pastry and cut out 4 circles approximately 8" in diameter, depending
 on the size of the apples. Place an apple in the center of the pastry
 circle and brush the edge with beaten egg; draw up the pastry to
 enfold the apple, pressing the edges firmly to seal. Brush the tops
 of the pastry parcels with the remaining egg to glaze. Bake in a
 shallow ovenproof dish for 40 minutes. Serve with whipped cream.
