How to make Tomato Jam Recipe
To begin making the Tomato Jam recipe, wash tomatoes and make a slit in cross (X) in endways.
Boil water nicely. Switch off and drop tomatoes inside hot water. Let it remain in it for about 5 to 10 minutes. This will help to peel skin off from tomatoes easily.
Take them out from water, allow to cool. Peel off skin and discard them. Squeeze out some of the juice and seeds from it. You can use it for something else.
Chop tomato into very fine pieces or blend in a processor for few seconds.
Take a heavy bottom large pan/kadai. Pour tomatoes into it. Boil for about 15 minutes on medium high flame to reduce liquid.
Add sugar, cinnamon and cloves powder. Mix well and let the gas be on medium flame. Bring mixture to full boil stirring frequently in between.
As it thickens, stir constantly and reduce the flame. Make sure not to overcook. Jam will thicken as it cools.
When the jam has reached a thick sauce consistency, add lemon juice. Mix well, turn off flame. Cool for about 10 minutes and pour into clean sterilised glass bottles.
