Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 2 Cups Mango
  • ¾ to 1 Cup Sugar
  • 1 tbsp Lemon Juice

Instruction

  • Rinse the mango well and peel the skin (use Alphonsa, Banganapalli, Imam Pasand etc, sweet variety without fibre). Then, chop the mango roughly and set aside with other ingredients.
  • To a mixer, add the chopped mango.
  • Grind the mango to a smooth paste without adding water, if there are small chunks also, it's ok.
  • To a heavy-bottomed pan, add the mango puree.
  • Immediately add 1 cup of sugar.
  • Sugar dissolves and the mixture starts to loosen.
  • Cook in low flame for about 10 to 12 minutes, until the jam consistency, is reached (it looks shiny). Ensure there is no water content and stir it in the middle without fail. Switch off the flame immediately, once the jam leaves the sides of the pan. Don't cook furthermore (dripping consistency only), else the jam turns hard.
  • Squeeze 1 tbsp of lemon juice, when the jam is hot itself and mix it well.
  • Once cooled, store it in a dry and clean container.Enjoy this Homemade Mango Jam with Bread and Butter.
