Ingredient | Method |
130g fresh strawberries 80g caster sugar 1 tbsp lemon juice *makes around 110g strawberry jam |
1. Wash strawberries and remove stems; cut large berries in half or roughly chop them.
2. Combine the strawberries, sugar and lemon juice in a small saucepan and cook over medium heat until the sugar is dissolved and the strawberries release some of the juices.
3. The mixture will sizzle for a while, but then juice will begin to form. Continue stirring; mash a few strawberries with a wooden spoon or heat-proof spatula to help produce the syrup.
4. Continue boil until the jam thickens or reaches setting point. Check the setting point every five minutes, although it may take up to half an hour to reach setting point.
5. Pour carefully into jars and keep refrigerated.
