    Zainab I love how simple you made this recipe sound. I love the pictures, making the jam has such a rustic feel to it. It looks wonderful I have bookmarked it. :-)

    How long does the jam keep in the fridge please?

    the jam looks gorgeous. gonna try this recipe with the mangoes that are in season here - i hope it works out.
    your vermicelli pasta looks so similar to a dish called Upma we make in India. Nice!

    There's nothing quite like fresh homemade bread and homemade jam. It is such a treat!

    Looks simple. I noticed that you do not use pectin. I did blueberry jam one year while living in Maine. I cooked wild blueberries w/ green apples and a little bit of sugar. It was yummy. Since then, I have not tried it w/o pectin. Thanks for the recipe.
