Blogging does make you try out out so many new varieties of food, experiment with new fruits/vegetables and then makes you wonder, what can 'I' stand for....
Well I is for Instant Pineapple Jam!
.
I went through my cookbooks, and hidden behind all the other mega books was a small booklet (paak pustika) which came free with my pressure cooker. Somehow it was lying by itself all this time, but now it was time to shine!

I found a recipe I liked and tried it out immediately. The recipe book was in marathi and here is my translation for you all to enjoy. It was great reading marathi after such a long time. See, this event even helped me re-polish my marathi.
.
1 cup grated fresh pineapple ( I used canned crushed pineapple)
1/4 cup grated apple (I used 1 apple)
1tbsp lemon juice
1cup sugar (I used a little less than that)
Pressure cook pineapple, apple & lemon juice.
{cooker madhye ananas, safarchand ani limbu ras ghala}
After one whistle, reduce flame to low and cook 5minutes. Let it cool.
{Prakhar achewar purna pressure yeoo dya. Aach kami kara ani 5minitey shijva. Cooker tasach thand karat theva.}
Take contents in a sauce pan and add the sugar slowly. Let it melt completely and keep stirring. Just boil till it comes together and sets.
{Cooker madhle sahitya saucepan madhye ghya, haluhalu sakhar ghalat dhavla ani sampurna viraghalwa. Prakhar achewar set hoipareyant zhatpat ukalwa.}
Isn't that simple and quick!
(Please note that I have given the marathi version because I had so much fun writing it. Please excuse mistakes if any.)
