How to Make Homemade Fresh Figs Marmalade Recipe

• Wash the figs nicely and chop them.
• Heat water in a non-stick pan. When the water is about to boil, add the chopped figs.
• Keep on low flame and keep stirring.
• Cover the pan and let the figs cook until they are tender. Press the figs a little with a wooden spatula to get them to jam/marmalade-like consistency.
• Add sugar and mix gently.
• Add the lemon zest and cook on medium-low flame, stirring occasionally.
• Cook until the marmalade gets thicker. This could take about 50 minutes.
• Add the lemon juice, cinnamon powder and turn off the flame.
• The marmalade will get thicker on cooling.
• Best served warm or else refrigerate and consume within a week or 10 days.
• Serve with toast, crackers, biscuits, parantha, cake or ice cream.
