What’s a girl going to do with the last of the tomato crop after she’s already made enough tomato relish to last six months? Green tomato jam of course. I’ve never made it before, but as I discovered, it’s very easy and it’s also very delicious.

Green Tomato Jam

Ingredients:

• 1 kg of small green tomatoes
• 750 grams of white sugar
• Juice of 2 lemons

Method:

• Wash and cut the tomatoes into quarters – no need to peel
• Place into a large bowl and add the sugar and lemon juice – mix well
• Cover and set aside overnight
• Next day transfer the contents and all the liquid into a large pot
• Bring to boil and simmer for half an hour as it thickens stirring frequently
• Allow to cool and transfer to sterilised jars or containers and freeze

Enjoy and happy cooking! ♥
