Mango Jam

Ingredients

Mango - 4 medium sized, fully ripe

Sugar - 1 cup for 3 cups of mango pulp

Lemon juice - 1 table spoon

Method

Peel, cut the mangoes and make juice out of them. This is the pulp measure and pour into a cooker. For 3 cups of pulp one cup of sugar. Add more if the mangoes taste less sweet. Add little water, about one table spoon in the cooker. Switch on the stove and let the cooker go for 6-8 whistles. Switch off, allow to cool and open. Now stir well and switch on the stove. Keep stirring at regular intervals until the colour changes and the consistency becomes thick. If you drop a spook of jam onto a plate it should stay and not run down when you hold it slightly titled. Allow to cool and pour it into a glass contanier.
