Not the first time I have made this one. Last did it in one of the cooking competitions on here.

Had a nice crop of Kent Pumpkins in the garden, most around the 2 kilo mark, and looking at different ways to cook them.

Ingredients
1000 grms Diced Pumpkin
1000 grms sugar
1 Large Lemon
10 cm Piece Ginger

Method
Dice pumpkin and mix through sugar. Sit covered at room temperature overnight.

Next day dice the lemon, remove any seeds and blitz in a blender. Grate the ginger.

Place pumpkin in heavy based pan, add the lemon and ginger.

Bring to a simmer and cook for 30 minutes.

Using a potato masher break the pumpkin up to the consistency you want you jam.

Place into sterilised jars while still hot.

I am currently up to the pumpkin and sugar mix and will add further photos tomorrow. You can see the sugar already starting to dissolve.
