Pumpkin jam recipe
You will need:
- 1 kg pumpkin, peeled and cut into medium pieces
- 2 cups of sugar
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 3 cloves
- 1 glass of coconut milk
- Fresh or dried grated coconut to taste
How to make:
In a large pan, cook the pumpkin with water until it covers it. After cooking, drain some of the water and knead it.
Return it to the pan and add the sugar, cinnamon, cloves and coconut milk.
Let it cook over low heat and mix so it doesn’t burn at the bottom.
When it is well cooked, remove the cinnamon and cloves, and add the coconut. Let it simmer a little more and turn off the heat. The candy cannot be dry, it has to be very moist.
Let it cool and serve.
