It was the right time to make some marmalade/ jam as a small pot was emptied yesterday morning, in my house. And here is the quickest and simplest recipe to make kiwi marmalade: The perfectly healthy, vitamin C rich fruit ( higher than in orange), in the best form you would like for your breakfast or snack time.
All you need is:
Kiwis - 8
- Sugar - 150 gm
- Lemon - 1
This what you have to do:
Peel all the kiwis
Keep two Kiwis aside,
Blend roughly or smash the rest of the Kiwis in a bowl.
In a thick bottom pan, pour in the fruits and start to stir under a medium flame.
- Once you see the bubble, add the sugar and keep stirring.
- Do not add any water.
- Continue the cooking in low flame, until you obtain the semi- marmalade/jam texture.
- Now, chop the remaining two kiwis in small pieces and add to the cooking content.
- When the added pieces are cooked, your marmalade is almost done.
- Before removing from the flame, add lemon zest , into the mixture and stir well.
Note: I did not add lemon juice, as my marmalade was flavored well with the zest.
But if you find your marmalade need some lemon juice, add it after the sugar. And the same, with the quantity of the sugar - My kiwis were sweet enough to spare the sugar amount. If you would like your mix to be sweeter, add sugar accordingly.
