DARK CHUNKY MARMALADE
Ingredients
3
lbs
Seville marmalade oranges
2
lemons
6
lb
granulated sugar
Instructions
Simmer the oranges and lemons in 3 litres of water in a covered pan for about 3 hours and allow to cool
Cut the oranges in half and scoop out all their contents into a saucepan. Do the same with the lemons but discard their peels
Add a pint of the poaching liquid to the fruit pulp and simmer for 10 mins
Strain through a muslin and leave everything to cool
Cut the peels into strips and place in a large pan
Use the muslin to squeeze everything you can from the pulp into the pan with the peels
Add the sugar and very gently allow it to dissolve over a low heat.
Once this is achieved let the marmalade bubble away for about 2 hours.
Test for set, continuing with the cooking until it does, testing at 10 minute intervals.
Allow to cool and fill your jars !
