Directions

  1. Wash the pot thoroughly and clean it. ≈ 8 min
  2. If you wish, you can pierce the pot with thorns to allow the spices to penetrate inside. ≈ 3 min
  3. In a large container, mix the guava berries, salt, and turmeric, then leave to sit in the sun for a day.
  4. This will allow the guava to become slightly softer and release some of its water. ≈ 3 min
  5. The next day, remove the leaves and discard them. ≈ 3 min
  6. In a saucepan, heat mustard oil until it is warm, then allow it to cool.
  7. Once the oil paint is cool, mix in some chili powder, cumin powder, and sugar. ≈ 4 min
  8. Carefully mix the spices and sugar, then pour the mixture into a clean, dry glass jar. ≈ 4 min
  9. By exposing the fruits to the sun for 2 to 3 hours each day, and then storing them for 3 to 5 days, it is possible to make jam.
