Red current jelly

School holidays & fruit picking. Kids loved it, in particular picking red currants which sort of surprised me. So back home with a punnet full of red currents I wondered what to do with.

I came up with this simple red current jelly & it was delicious served with homemade burgers, sweet potato chips and salad.

Easy to make - equal weight of red currants and sugar. Put the red currents in a pan and put on the hob. Add a bit of water and bring to the boil. Add the sugar, giving it a good stir until all dissolved. Cook for a further 5 mins. Strain through a small holed gauzed drainer.
