Satsumas or mandarines as we call them in Australia are amazing, I love citrus fruits. Yesterday I bought a whole netted bag, ate half and instead of letting the other half go to waste, I figured it would make a great jam.
Method-
Peel and cut 4 satsumas/mandarines into small pieces. In a saucepan, add 4 tablespoons of sugar (I know, it's a lot of sugar but it's ok to treat yourself once in a while) and 2 teaspoons of cinnamon.
Use a potato masher (or whatever those plastic/metal things are called) to press the fruit down and get the juices out.
Bring to the boil and keep on high for roughly 3-4 minutes to let some of the liquid evaporate.
Turn heat down to low and let simmer for several minutes. Remove from heat, serve.
If you feel that your jam is still a bit too runny, add a little more sugar and then bring to the boil again then turn heat down once again to simmer.
