Hello friends of Steemit I hope you are well, in December I could enjoy a delicious jam that my grandmother prepared, when I saw the ingredients it seemed very strange to see carrots and orange but only my grandmother knew what I was doing, I decided to share the recipe with you that really is very delicious.

Ingredients:

• 1 kg of oranges
• ½ kg of carrots
• 400 gr of sugar
• A pinch of salt

Preparation:

Peel and wash the carrots. Cut them into thin slices. Put the carrots in a pot or saucepan and add enough water to cover all the pieces. Add the salt and cook the carrots until they are soft. (Do not let them get too soft, try cutting with a spoon and when they can be easily chopped with a spoon they are ready) Drain and remove the water. Beat the carrots with the help of the blender until mashed. To prepare the orange juice, we squeeze the kilogram of oranges (approximately 4-6 depending on size). It is not necessary to strain the juice, the important thing is that orange bones do not appear.
Now let's prepare the jam, In a pot or saucepan pour the orange juice, add the mashed carrots and sugar stir well and put to heat over medium heat, at first it will be enough to remove from time to time, but when the mix begins to thicken it is convenient to stir continuously. To know when the jam is ready, it is recommended to remove a spoonful of marmalade on a plate and let it cool slightly to check the texture. Keep in mind that the jam will become thicker when cooling. Once cold store in a glass jar.
