Ingredients

  • Ripe Mangoes: 5 around 1 Kg (here I've used Safeda variety which is widely available now in India)
  • Sugar: 2 Cup 450 g
  • Lemon Juice: 2 Tbsp.

Instructions

  • Cut the top crown portion of Mangoes and soak those in water for 30 minutes.
  • I always soak mangoes for some time before having those in any form.
  • Remove Skin and discard Mango Seed.
  • Cut Mangoes into small Cubes. Extract as much as possible Juice from the body of the Mango Seeds.
  • Since I prefer a bit rough texture of the Jam I don’t make a puree while preparing jam. If you need smoother consistency then make Puree of Mangos for preparing the Jam.
  • Now in a deep bottomed Pan (preferably Non-stick) take Mango Cubes along with Sugar and Lemon Juice and start cooking in medium flame.
  • Mash Mangoes a bit using a wooden ladle and cook till Sugar dissolves completely.
  • You can adjust Sugar according to your taste. Mangoes that I had were too sweet and it took me around 2 Cup of Sugar to make the Jam.
  • Reduce the flame when the mixture start bubbling and cook for around 10 minutes until the mixture thicken and mangoes massed completely.
  • Mix in between with a ladle and cook till the mixture turn glossy in texture for around 15 minutes more. End result should be a semi thick Jam.
  • Switch the flame off and let the Jam cool completely.
  • Store Jam in a sterilized Glass container.

Notes

I don't use any food colour or Preservative in my Jam
