Apple Jam
by Tarla Dalal
A rich, amber-coloured jam with a hint of lemon, the Apple Jam is a perfect accompaniment to a loaf of freshly baked bread, croissants, or pancakes too. Instead of adding cinnamon powder to the jam, you may also choose to dip a stick of cinnamon into the jam while it is still hot, and lid the jar for a while, allowing the flavour to ooze in naturally and mildly. The coarse texture, which results from grating rather than blending the apples, is a specialty of this jam. But, of course, the best part is that it can be prepared in a jiffy using the microwave oven, so you can prepare fresh jam anytime you wish to!

Hey, I have an oven and not microwave. so how should I go about it? Also, for how long can this jam be used?
Texture great Flavour great time used great only problem I let my partner try it back to kitchen now Thank You Eric
This amber coloured jam is sweet and tangy in taste. You can make this recipe in less then 5 minutes.This apple jam is not as smooth as other jams but tastes as yummy as others.
Amazing taste.The best thing about this recipe is how fast you can prepare it. I used less sugar coz the apples were sweet itself. Cinnamon and lemon give it a nice flavor. I just made it out of 1 apple, was just trying out the recipe. Love it, will be making it again.
Yummy
Thanks to mrs dalal for this wonderful recipe.I tried it today and turned out to be yummy.This is an excellent recipe when fruits get wasted, we can replace apples to mixed fruits to make this yummy jam then it will be mixed fruit jam.
