Courgette jam!


I love to make jams because your house just smells great afterwards and you can enjoy it for a long time! And it's a perfect gift if you are invited to dinner or lunch. This one I made for my friend Tina. You get for big jars out of this recipe.

Ingredients:

1kg courgette (cleaned and fine rasped)
750g brown sugar
1 rasp of a whole lemon
2 cinnamon sticks
1 spoon of cardamon powder

Put all ingredients into a large pan and mix everything together and leave for an hour! Then take it to the fire and let it cook for 1.5 to 2 hours. First at a big flame and later at the smallest. When it's sticky and you can make a "road" with a spoon on the pan it's ready! Divide the jam into sterilized jam pots, fill the pots close them and turn them outside up to great a vacuum and leave like that until the first time you use it.

Enjoy!
