Ingredients

1 kg ripe pears
1 egg yolk
60 ml lemon juice
1 fresh red chilli
600 g Siucra or McKinney's Sure-Set Jam Sugar

Instructions

Wash, peel and quarter the pears. Cut away the core and slice thinly. Place in a saucepan with the saffron and lemon juice. Cover and boil for about 5 minutes.

Meanwhile, wash and finely chop the chilli. Add the chilli and jam sugar to the pan and boil, uncovered, for another 10-15 minutes.

Pour into warm, thoroughly cleaned jars. Refrigerate. 

This jam tastes wonderful with cheese or bread, for example.
