Tips:

  • For the best results, use ripe papaya. Unripe papaya will be sour and lack flavor.
  • To easily peel the papaya, cut it in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds. Then, use a sharp knife to remove the skin.
  • If you don't have access to fresh coconut, you can use unsweetened shredded coconut flakes.
  • Be careful not to overcook the jam. Overcooked jam will be thick and sticky.
  • Store the jam in a clean, airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

Conclusion:

Fresh papaya and coconut jam is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be enjoyed on toast, pancakes, waffles, or yogurt. It can also be used as a filling for pastries or as a glaze for roasted chicken or pork. With its sweet and tangy flavor, this jam is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
