Plum Jam

Ingredients 

• 12 large plums
• Sugar as required
• ½ tsp citric acid 

Method

1. Chop plums roughly and puree them. Measure the puree and transfer into a deep non stick pan and cook for 4-5 minutes.
2. Add sugar the same quantity as the plum puree and cook, stirring frequently, till the mixture thickens and the colour deepens.As the jam cooks, scrape off the mixture sticking to the sides of the pan and put it into the cooking mixture. Add ½ tsp citric acid and mix well.
3. To test if the jam is done, put a little jam on a plate and let it rest for a while. If it sets as it cools, it means the jam is ready. Once the jam is ready pour it into sterilized bottles while still hot, seal and let it cool down to room temperature. Store in cool place.
