This homemade orange and lemon marmalade is bright, zesty, and bursting with citrus flavour. A great balance of sweet and tangy, making it a delicious spread for toast, scones, or even as a glaze. A classic pantry staple that's easier to make than you think! A great use of winter citrus fruit! This recipe is courtesy of Alice, Chelsea New Zealand's Hottest Home Baker winner.

Very easy to follow and really tasty. I added a bit of ginger and it is delicious. I did have to boil it more than the 4 minutes suggested before it would set, but then I didn't use setting sugar, just plain white sugar.

Method
Remove zest from oranges and lemons and slice finely. If you prefer a less chunky rind in your marmalade, you can zest the fruit with a microplane grater instead.
Remove white pith from the fruit and discard. Chop orange and lemon flesh coarsely.
Place orange and lemon zest and flesh in a large heavy-based saucepan and just barely cover with cold water. Bring to a boil and simmer for half an hour, or until zest is soft and mixture is fairly thick.
Leave fruit to cool slightly then measure out in cupfuls. Place an equal amount of fruit and Chelsea Jam Setting Sugar (i.e. 4 cups of fruit and 4 cups of sugar) back into the saucepan. Stir over medium heat for a couple of minutes or until sugar dissolves.
Increase heat and bring to a full boil (a boil that cannot be stirred down). Boil rapidly for 4 minutes (removing any foam with a spoon).
Test a small amount of marmalade on a cold saucer (the surface should wrinkle when a spoon is pushed through it). If the surface doesn't wrinkle, return to the boil for 1-2 minute intervals and test again.
Ladle hot marmalade into warm sterilised jars and seal with a lid.
Set aside to cool, then label, date and store in a cool dark place. Refrigerate after opening.
Makes approximately 3 x 350ml jars.
