When making curry, when should I add the apples? (piefed.social)

So that the meat is tender I'm letting the meat simmer for 4 hours. I put ingredients like onion, ginger, mushrooms during that period. But potatoes I only put them near the end. I also sometimes add apples or pears for some sweet ingredients. Would it be best to put the apple at the same time as the potatoes or is ok to put them before?

Yah, they’re supposed to go in at the very end, if not off the heat outright, there are a lot of ingredients in them that are heat sensitive and will break down or cook off with long exposure to heat.
