Ingredients
● 400 g dragon fruit – Pitayaha
● 350 g sugar
● 100 g water
● juice of 1/2 lemon
Directions
Slice the fruit in 4, and carefully remove the skins.
Next, slice into smaller pieces and put them in a blender and puree more or less, depending on how smooth we want the jam to be.
Put the puree in the pot, and add the water and sugar.
Put the pot on medium heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes until the jam has thickened.
Once the jam is ready, add the lemon juice, stir and remove from the heat.
To see if the jam has the desired consistency, put some on a saucer and allow to cool.
Once it has cooled tilt the plate slightly and if it is not runny, the jam is ready.
Allow the jam to rest for 10 minutes and then store in glass sterilized jars.
