Microwave Mixed Berry Jam
500g berries e.g. raspberries, blackberries
2 cups Chelsea white sugar
1 tsp of freshly squeezed lemon juice
Place berries and lemon juice in a
deep microwave proof bowl (glass or pyrex).
Microwave on high power for 2 minutes
then stir in the sugar. Cook on high for
5 minutes then stir. Cook for a further
5 to 8 minutes until the jam setting point
is reached (104°C). A jam or candy thermometer
to accurately gauge this temperature eliminates
all the guess work.
Pour into 2 warm sterilised jars and seal.
Makes 2 1/2 cups
To sterilise jars in the microwave half fill clean jars
with cold water and cook on high 2 to 3 mins
until the water boils.
Carefully tip out the water and fill the jars
while still warm.
