Ingredients
1.5Kg Seville Marmalade Oranges
2 x lemons (juice only)
2.5kg Jam or Granulated Sugar
Method (making two batches)
Place the Whole Oranges & Lemon Juice in a heavy pan, cover with 2 liters of water, make sure the fruit is submerged. Bring to the boil then simmer for 2 hours or until the flesh is soft.
Take the pan off the heat, remove any skim & finely cut the oranges peel. Then half the liquid into the heavy pan, putting aside the other half, as well as with the shredded peel of oranges. Add half the sugar to the pan & stir over a low heat until the sugar is dissolved. Then bring to the boil & rapidly bubble for 20/25 minutes until the setting point is reached. Allow it to cool a little. At this stage a knob of butter stirred gently to give a silk smooth texture.
