Mango Jam Recipe
Ingredients:
- 12 Cloves
- 1½ kg Sugar
- 1½ tsp Citric Acid
- ¼ tsp Cinnamon powder
- 1 kg Mangoes, half ripened
- 2 pinch Potassium meta bisulphate
Method:
- Peel the skin of the mangoes. Cut into small pieces and put in water. There must be enough water to cook the mango.
- Slightly crush the clove and put this along with the cinnamon into some water. Heat it. Bring to a boil and then lower the heat and simmer for a minute or two. Strain and keep liquid aside.
- Grind the mango in an electric liquidator, when it cools. Replace the mango solution in the fire.
- Add sugar and citric acid to it, and cook over low heat till sugar dissolves. When dissolved, increase the heat and bring to a boil, and cook till jam becomes thick.
- Take the jam off the heat. When the jam becomes cool, dissolve potassium meta bisulphate in half of its quantity. Mix it with the other half and store in a bottle.
