Recipe - Blackberry And Apple Cheese

1 kg Blackberries
450 g Cooking apples; peeled,
cored and
; finely chopped
1 1/3 kg Granulated sugar

1 Put the fruit in a preserving pan with 600ml/1 pint water and cook
gently for about 30 minutes until very soft.

2 Press the pulp through a nylon sieve set over a bowl. Measure the
resulting puree and return it to the pan, adding 500g/1lb 2oz sugar
for each 500ml/18fl ounce puree.

3 Stir over a low heat until the sugar has dissolved, boil the mix and
simmer, stirring often for 4060 minutes. Check the cheese is ready by
drawing a wooden spoon across the bottom of the preserving pan
leaving a clean line.

4 As soon as it is done, spoon the cheese into warmed, clean, small
jars, cover with waxed discs and seal. Alternatively the fruit cheese
can be turned into ramekins, left to set and then turned out for
serving.
