Spread the love

Ingredients for 2 servings:

  • 200 g kiwi(s)
  • 200 g apples (varietal of your choice)
  • 200 g gelling sugar, 2:1
  • ½ lemon(s), the juice
  • 2 cl orange juice

Instructions

Working time approx. 15 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 5 minutes; Total time approx. 20 minutes

makes 2 glasses of 212 ml each

Peel, quarter, core, and very finely dice the apples. Place in a bowl, add the lemon juice, and mix. Peel and quarter the kiwi, remove the white core in the middle, and finely chop. Add to the bowl and stir. Place everything in a saucepan and turn on the heat to high. Add the gelling sugar and orange juice and mix well. Bring to a boil once, stirring constantly, then reduce the heat until the mixture is just simmering. Simmer for 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the fruit has reduced to a puree, then turn off the heat. If the jam is still too chunky for your taste, mash everything in the pan with a regular potato masher and stir. Remove from the heat, pour 1 teaspoon of the mixture onto a small plate, and check if the jam is no longer too runny. If so, add a little citric acid and stir in. Now pour the hot mixture into small jars (twist-off), seal immediately, and let cool. The cellar is still ideal for storage.
