This is very tasty and probably the best Sweet Marmalade I have made this season. It is based roughly on my Lemon and Carrot recipe. I’m posting the recipe as I’ve been asked for it. Made in the Thermomix , it makes 4 small jars.
Ingredients
100g carrot ,chopped into big rings.
350 Mandarines, quartered and pips removed
1 Tablespoon of lemon juice
500 liquid, ( I cook peel and cores from apples and strain the liquid.) water ok.
750 g sugar
1/2 cup Lemoncello
( more lemon juice and Jamsetta if needed)
Method
Place Carrot, Mandarin and lemon juice into TMX bowl and zap on speed 6 for 4 seconds. Check texture. You want no big lumps and not completely smooth.
Add liquid and cook ; 30 minutes, 100 degrees, speed 2., reverse
Add sugar, cook 15 minutes 100 degrees, speed 2 reverse. ( the amount of sugar should be 3/4 the volume of the cooked liquid in the bowl. )
Cook 15 minutes Veroma temperature,speed 2.
Test for setting. I place a small dish in freezer and place 2 teaspoons of marmalade on it and return to freezer for 5 minutes. If it forms a firm wrinkle when pushed with finger, it is set. If not add 1 tablespoon of lemon juice and 2 teaspoons of Jamsetta. Continue cooking for another 10 minutes at Varoma temperature and speed 2
Test again, if set, add Lemoncello and mix into mixture . If not set cook for another 10 minutes.
Pour into sterilised jars and firmly screw on lids. Turn upside down for 10 minutes to sterilise lids.
Notes
It is important to get a firm set as the Lemoncello will thin the set.
You could use a different citrus flavoured liquor. .
Equally good without the Liquor.
Nice heated and poured over ice cream or citrus pudding. Or added to plain muffin mix. (see Adam Liew recipe .
