In winter we seem to crave sweets more, and one thing I can't live without in winter is jam. Not any jam, good jam! Today I will be sharing a bizarre jam recipe which may come as a surprise to some. Red Chili Jam. It is delicious! You could say jam with an edge :) because of course it is a bit spicy. The amount of spice depends totally on your taste, you can make it mild or take it a bit further. Personally, I prefer it a bit more than mild, but mild is good too.
In order to reduce the heat in your jam, you need to taste the chili, if you find it to be very spicy deseed the whole lot. Slice each one in half and remove the seeds. Or you can use less chili and more red bell peppers.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup red chili peppers - كوب فلفل احمر مطحون
- 1 large red bell pepper - حبة كبيره فلفل احمر حلو
- 1 green apple - تفاحه خضراء
- 1 red apple - تفاحه حمراء
- 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar - ربع كوب خل تفاح
- 1/4 cup white vinegar - ربع كوب خل ابيض
- 1 1/2 - 2 cups sugar - كوب ونص أو كوبين سكر
* Remove the chili into a different bowl and chop in the bell pepper and peeled apples, again blend until very fine or smooth.
*Now you add this mixture into your pan, add 1 cup from you finely chopped chilies. If you don't want your jam to be too spicy maybe use a little less from the chilies or deseed them.
*Pour on the two types of vinegar and the sugar, cover and boil.
*Once everything boils, reduce the heat and leave it to simmer for almost one hour. or until you lose most of the water content. Once the jam thickens and you reach the consistency in the video turn of the heat and allow the jam to cool.
* Once it is cool, pour into an airtight jar and enjoy. Keep it in the fridge if it is too hot. It is so delicious you will want to have jam for all meals.
