Raspberry strawberry lemon jam

This weekend we felt like making some jam to go with fresh scones and cream. So after visiting the shops and finding ripe fresh strawberries and raspberries on sale, the flavour was determined. This time we made the jam less sweet and let the fruit do all the flavouring; it turned out tart, naturally sweet and delicious. We really enjoyed this combination. Thermomix instructions included.

Makes: around a cup and a half of jam
Prep Time: 5 minutes

Ingredients:

125g fresh raspberries
300g of ripe strawberries hulled
100g (1/2cup) The Sugar Breakup Dextrose
