2medium sized applesor about 1.5 cups chopped apples
3plums
½cupsugar
1teaspoonlemon juice
Instructions
Wash, peel and chop apples. Wash and slice the plums to get rid of its seed.
Take chopped apples and plums along with sugar in a microwave safe bowl. Cover them and microwave for 10 minutes, until apples and plums are soft and sugar gets completely dissolved.
Take the mixture out and cool for a few minutes. Blend it to a pulp in a blender/mixer. You may either blend it completely or may also leave few chunks of apples & plums.
Transfer the pulp in the same microwave safe bowl. Cook for 5 minutes. You will notice that jam has thickened (no need to cover). Stir once in between.
Now add lemon juice and mix well. Again microwave for 5 minutes. There will be a frothy layer and colour of the jam would become much darker.
To check whether jam is ready or not, put about a teaspoon of jam in freezer section of the refrigerator for 5-10 minutes. It should turn out to be thick and consistency should like be of a jam. Spread it on a plate, if it is watery cook for few more minutes.
