Whatcha need:

7 green apples (golden delicious is best) peeled, cored, and halved
Juice from one lemon
6 Tablespoons, unsalted butter
1 cup, granulated sugar
1 piece of puff pastry
whipped cream

1. Heat oven to 400F. Toss the apples with the lemon juice and let em set

2. Melt the butter in a 9 inch skillet capable of going in the oven on high heat. Toss in the sugar until it melts and starts turning brown, caramalizing. DO NOT STIR THIS CONCOCTION! Swirl if you have to. Once its brown remove it from the heat

3. Carefully place the apples round sides down on one layer into the sugar/butter mix. Cut halves into quarters if need be, and cover skillet. Put the skillet back onto the heat. Turn the heat down to medium low and cover. Go read a book for 15 minutes

4. Remove the apples CAREFULLY using a slotted spoon leaving the juices in the skillet.

5. Increase the heat to med and cook until the juices and whatnot are thick and syrup like. approx 15 minutes.

6. Remove from heat and let it cool for a few minutes.

7. Put apples back in pan, round sides down.

8. Let puff pastry dough sit at room temperature until softened. Open it up and unroll it on a lighty floured surface. Roll the dough until it has a 12 inch diameter around. Put the dough on the hot apples and push in the excess around the sides pretty tightly. Cut some slits in the dough to let steam out. Five slits usually looks nice

9. Bake for 18-20 minutes until the pastry looks nice and golden. Take it out of the oven and and look at it funny for about 3 minutes. Loosen the tart by running a knife around the end. Now grab a neat looking serving dish and place it on top of the tart. In one smooth motion, flip it over and let the tart fall out into the serving dish. You might have to tap it a bit, but make sure it all comes out. Serve warm, with some whipped cream on top.

10. Watch the smiles and revel in the "Oh my Gods" that erupt from your grazing audience
