I like to do everything from scratch in home. So when I had a pack of strawberry I decide to make Jam out of it ,as I baked a bread the previous day. So I wanted to have my home-made bread with homemade jam ,It did turn out really well. Loved the vibrant colour and the aroma of strawberry and really enjoyed making the jam in home. This is also really healthy as I have not added any preservatives for making the Jam .

3. With the back of a ladle break and mash the Strawberries such that it is smooth. When the Sugar is about to boil add in the lemon juice from one half of the lemon. Keep on stirring the mixture will start to become thick.
4. The colour of the Jam will now start to get dark and to check the Jam consistency take the plate that is kept in the freezer and keep a drop Jam in the plate the Jam should not flow freely it should stick to the plate. This is the right consistency switch off the flam immediately and allow it to cool down, once cooled completely transfer it to a sterilized bottle and cover well.
Notes:
- Always use a clean and dry spoon to scoop the Jam every time.
- Adjust the amount of sugar as per the sweetness of the fruits.
- I used I packet of Strawberry for this recipe.
