Fried Candied Apples

7 apples, sliced (Johnathans, Granny Smith or any tart apple tastes best)
3 tablespoon butter
1/4 cup water
1 cup of the small "hot cinnamon" candies

Melt butter in large frying pan. Add apple slices , cinnamon red hot candies, water and cover, Let cook over medium heat stirring occasionally. Remove lid half way through and continue frying until apples are soft, but not mush, and liquid has cooked down to a thick syrup. Remove apples and syrup from pan and put into a bowl, let cool down before serving. Goes very well with pork chops, ribs and pork roasts....
Note: All apples and baking apples work well. Wash apples, leave peel on or off, remove core and slice into wedges. Approximately 10-12 slices per apple.
