Hi Shilpa

Made this jam. Loved the chunky texture. Thanks to your husband as well.

Next time I will reduce the amount of sugar a bit.

Hi Shilpa,

Even I was skeptical at first to try it. But when I tried it this evening, I was really surprised. It tasted very good. I also had a couple of blueberries. I did a very small batch of strawberries and blueberries together. My son loved it. In general he doesn’t like chunky jams, so in the middle of the heating process, I mashed it with a potato masher in addition to cutting them into tiny pieces. The result was wonderful, just like store bought smooth jam. Thanks for the recipe.

Preeti, Ananas/ambe paank tastes great with dosa. I will post the recipe very soon. I think you are talking about “Methamba” or something like that, pineapple/mango cooked in Jaggery. But the sugar version is more famous in North Kanara.
Thanks Archana, RP .
Vineela, Thanks for the comment and thanks for allowing non-blogger commenting. It really helps .
Indira, Thanks for the comment. I could not participate in JFI for mangoes, I still feel bad for that . So I am making sure to participate in as many events as possible .

I think, strawberries are completely unfamiliar fruits to most of us. I’ve tasted them only after moving to here. We don’t grow/get them at my home town in Andhra.

Why, you’ve prepared a classic strawberry jam. The method you described looks like a home made version of jam without pectin.

Looks delicious and kudos to you for coming up with this recipe.

Thanks for sharing, Shilpa.

hey…this is similar to strawberry preserve from the jam family. I remember having a friend’s mom make these often. I would have it with bread when I craved for something sweet.

Btw how does ananas paank taste with dosa? I’ve had only godda paank, to date. Do you use crushed ananas?
