Ingredients

2 kg	Granny Smith apples, unpeeled, chopped into large pieces including cores
100 g	fresh mint, chopped
500 ml	water
500 ml	white vinegar
700 g	sugar

Instructions

Combine apple pieces with water and mint in a large pan. Bring water to a boil then reduce heat and cook 20 minutes, until apples are soft.

Add vinegar and return to boil. Reduce heat again and simmer, covered, five more minutes. Purée the apples with a held blender.

Spoon the apple pulp into a large, fine mesh sieve, suspended over a large bowl. Leave to strain for several hours.

Measure the juice, then pour into a large pot. Add the sugar and heat up. Keep stirring to make sure the sugar gets dissolved and does not stick to the bottom of the pan. Bring to a boil and cook for 10-15 minutes. Using a metal spoon, skim off the surface scum.
Continue to boil and cook for another 15 minutes.

Remove from heat and allow the jelly to cool for a few seconds. Try pushing it with your fingertip. If it wrinkles up, itis ready.

Serving suggestion: Use with your lamb roast.
