Clementine Spread

I was going to call this recipe "Clementine Jam" but because I didn't use any sugar, it is technically "Clementine Spread". It is a good way of preserving citrus fruits if you have too many to eat before they go bad.

Ingredients

• 1kg clementines (this word work equally well with other citrus fruits)
  
• 1 tsp lemon juice

Equipment

• Sharp knife and chopping board
• Food processor or the patience to chop very finely
• Pan big enough to accommodate fruit (mine was a 9" saucepan)
• Wooden spoon for stirring
• 2 x 1lb jars

Method
Wash fruits.
Chop roughly and remove any blemished skin.
Blitz in food processor until it looks like this:


If you don't have a food processor, you will need to chop it finely by hand.
Place in pan with lemon juice and simmer on low until it has reduced down to a jam-like consistency. (Mine took around an hour.)
Put in sterilised jars.
Store in fridge once cool.
