- 3 1/2 cups sugar
- 2 1/2 cups water
- 6 apples
- 4 slices of lemon

Cook sugar and water together 10 minutes (be patient, you rascal). Pare, core, and cut apples in thick round slices. Add lemon slices to syrup and cook apples, a few slices at a time, until all are cooked. Arrange rice in bottom of serving dish. Arrange slices of apple overlapping each other, on top of rice. Boil the syrup until thick, and pour atop apples. Cool and serve like a rascal with a smile on your face. Pears, peaches or oranges may be substituted for apples.
