Ingredients
- 8 cups guava, diced
- 2 cups green apple, diced
- 2-1/2 cups sugar
- 1 lemon rind & juice
- 4 cups water
Directions
- combine all ingredients into a big pot and bring it to boil.

- then bring it to medium heat and slightly mashed the fruits or you may use the electrical food blender if preferably smoother texture
- then continue on boiling it over medium heat for another 30 minutes. You will notice a layer of bubbles on the surface. Those are pectin which produced by the green apples & lemon. It helps to gel the fruits.

- keep on boiling the mixture till thickened. You may refer here for further info, how to test the jam.
- off the heat once it's done and fill jam into bottles & seal immediately. You may also refer here for sealing tips.
