1. Wash the jam jars with hot soapy water and sterilise in the oven at 100ºC for 30 minutes

6. In a heavy bottom pot, add all the ingredients and bring to a boil and stir until the sugar has dissolved. It will take about 20 minutes
7. Turn down the heat and simmer for about 90 minutes, often stirring, so that nothing gets stuck in the bottom of the pot.
