Again for Bonfire Night, or even as something a little different for Burns' Night, these easy-to-make savoury snacks have a surprising fruity twist and can be served hot or cold.

1 apple, peeled, quartered and cored
1 tbsp flour
50g (2oz) sausage meat
2 eggs, beaten
175g (6oz) dried breadcrumbs
A little cooking oil

Cut the apple into 12 chunks, then toss in the flour and keep on one side. Divide the sausage meat into the same number of portions and shape each one around the apple pieces making sure the apple is completely covered. Dip each 'ball' into the beaten egg then coat with breadcrumbs.

Heat the cooking oil in a large frying pan and gently fry the balls for 8-10 minutes until golden brown all over and cooked through.
