600 grams - Fresh Blueberries
400 grams - Sugar
1 tablespoon - Lemon juice
Method:
- Wash the blueberries well.
- Add the blueberries, sugar and lemon juice into a heavy bottom pan.
- Place the pan over a gentle heat to slowly dissolve the sugar crystals, stirring with a wooden spoon from time to time.
- As the sugar starts to melt and the fruit warms up, mash the blueberries in the pan.
- Once the sugar has completely dissolved turn up the heat and bring the pan to boil and time for 15 minutes, stirring all the while (to prevent the sugar burning on the base).
- Take the pan off the heat and test a few drops of the jam on a frozen saucer and place in the fridge for a minute. If when you push your finger through it the jam forms a crinkle and is gel like then it’s ready. Otherwise boil for another couple of minutes and repeat process until ready.
- Store the jam in a glass jar.
