"A bright green (or golden) jam made in the microwave."

 

• Ready In: 45mins
• Ingredients: 3
• Yields: 2 Jars

ingredients

• 2 lbs kiwi fruits
• 1 lb granulated sugar
• 2 ounces lemon juice

directions

1. Cooked kiwifruit can have a metallic taste, removing the seeds fixes the problem.
2. Halve kiwifruit lengthwise, with a sharp spoon scoop out the seedy pulp and discard. Scoop out the remaining pulp until you have 1 lb. Mash the pulp in a big heat-proof jug, add the lemon juice and microwave until it boils vigorously (5 minutes).
3. Stir in the sugar until it is mostly dissolved. Cook on a low power setting for about 8 minutes until a little jam sets. Add a little green food colouring to enhance the appearance.
4. Gold kiwifruit makes a beautiful golden jam without added colour.
