Ingredients

2 300g packets creative gourmet frozen berries (blackberries or raspberries)

1/4 cup (60ml) lemon juice

3 cup (550g) sugar

Method

1.Place frozen berries in a large microwave-proof bowl with juice. Cook on high (1200 watts or 100%) for 5 minutes. Stir in sugar and cook for another 15-20 minutes, stirring after 5 minutes to ensure sugar is dissolved. A gel should form when tested on a cold saucer.

2.Ladle jam into hot sterilised jars and seal with lids. Label and store in a cool, dark place.

To prevent jam boiling over, a large bowl is essential. Quick berry jam will keep for several weeks, or longer, in the refrigerator.
