Combine sugar and water in a saucepan, stirring over low heat until the sugar is dissolved. Bring to a boil and boil for 5 minutes. Peel and core the apples. Cut them into quarters or eighths. Please place them in cold water to prevent discoloration until ready to cook. Drain apple sections a few at a time and gently poach them in the sugar-water syrup until transparent and tender. Add a little essary to prevent the syrup from becoming too thick. After all the apples have been cooked, pour the remainder of the syrup over the fruit and chill. Serve with vanilla ice cream and a dollop of whipped cream.
