Alice'S Dragon Fruit & Lychee Jam - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    500 g dragon fruit, finely chopped
    500 g lychee, finely chopped
    1 kg jam setting sugar
    10 g butter
Preparation
    Chop fruit finely or pulse in a food processor. Add to a large saucepan with the jam sugar.
    Cook over a low heat stirring until sugar has dissolved. Add the knob of butter, increase heat and bring to a full boil (a boil that cannot be stopped when stirred).
    Boil rapidly for 4 minutes only, carefully skimming off any foam from surface during cooking.
    Remove from heat, then test a small amount on a cold plate for set, (the surface of the jam should wrinkle when a spoon is pushed through it). If not set, return to the boil for a further 2 minutes and test again.
    Spoon into hot, sterilised, glass jars and seal. Makes 4 medium jars.
