Plum Jam

Ingredients

• 1200 grams sweet ripe plums

• 400 grams sugar

• ~ 1 cup grams water

• ~ 1/2 cup lemon juice

Instructions

• Remove the stones and cut the plums into to small pieces.

• Put the chopped plums into a large saucepan.

• Add the water and lemon juice and simmer until the fruit is soft and pulpy. About 5-10 minutes.

• Add the sugar and stir until it is all dissolved.

• Turn up the heat and bring the jam to a rolling boil.

• Boil for around 10 minutes stirring occasionally so the jam doesn’t stick. The jam should start to look thicker.

• Take the pan off the heat and cool for several minutes.

• Put the jam into a sterilized jam jar and seal with a tight lid.

• Store the jam in the fridge and use within 3 months.
