Asian Pear Jam

Directions

1. 1
   Peel the pear and the lemon and cut into chunks.
2. 2
   Cover Step 1 with sugar and leave to sit for 30 minutes until the moisture is released from the fruit.
3. 3
   Quite a lot will draw out.
4. 4
   Turn on the heat and simmer while occasionally stirring to prevent burning until the volume lessens to 1/3.
5. 5
   You can leave the pears in chunks or whiz them in a blender!
6. 6
   I kept the pears chunky and the jam thick.
7. 7
   Store the unused portion in an airtight jar.
8. 8
   Since I wanted to try out the jam, I topped it over pancakes.
9. 9
   The jam is slightly sweet with the taste of real fruit.
10. 10
    You can probably use one whole jar in 2-3 occasions if topping it on pancakes.
