  • Wash berries and apples. Peel and core apples. Place berries in a pot and pour in enough water to come up half way. Bring to the boil then simmer until they soften and are mushy. Strain through a sieve then place in a measuring jug to see how much you have.
  • Place apples in a pot with a small amount of water (only enough to cover the bottom of your pot). Bring to the boil then simmer until stewed. Mash then weigh.
  • Mix both apples and berries together with the grated rind and juice of the 2 lemons. Then to every 600ml of berries add 500g sugar and every 500g of apple add 125g of sugar.
  • Boil until it reaches the "jell" stage. Store in sterilised jars.
