Ingredients

1 1/2 cups peeled and chopped apples
1/4 cup sugar
1 1/2 tsp lemon juice
cinnamon (dalchini) powder (optional)

Method

1. Combine the apple and sugar in a microwave safe bowl and microwave on HIGH for 2 minutes.
2. Remove from the microwave and add the lemon juice and cinnamon powder. Mix well and microwave on HIGH for 2½ minutes.
3. Cool and store refrigerated in an air-tight container.

Tips

1. VARIATION : STRAWBERRY JAM
2. Substitute the apples for mashed strawberries to make fresh strawberry jam.
3. The quantity of sugar to be used will depend on how sweet the strawberries are.
4. The time taken to cook this jam will be slightly more than that for apple jam as the moisture content in strawberries is higher than that in apples.
