Ingredients
- 4 Oranges
- 1 1/4 cup Water
- 1 1/4 cup Raw sugar You can use regular white sugar
- 2 tsp Grated ginger Optional
Instructions
- Slice the oranges as thinly as possible. Cut into quarters.
- Take out all the seeds.
- Wherever the pith ( white part under the skin) is too thick, you can cut that off.
- Place a small bowl or plate in the freezer. This is for testing the jam.
- Place the oranges, with their juices into a saucepan.
- Add water, sugar, and ginger.
- Bring the mixture to a boil on medium heat. Once it boils, lower the heat to low.
- Cook for about 40 minutes, stirring occasionally. When the mixture starts to look thick, take it off the heat.
- Put a spoonful on the chilled plate or bowl. If the jam wrinkles up when you push it lightly with your finger or a spoon, your marmalade is ready. If not, put it back on heat for a few more minutes.
- Carefully spoon the marmalade in clean, sterilized jars. Seal tightly.
- This should last about 3 weeks in the refrigerator. Enjoy!
