A BUSY WEEKEND ..3. ORANGE AND APPLE SAVOURY JELLY

I  peeled and removed pips and pith from 3 oranges and cut them up into pieces and placed them in my preserve pan with
11 cups of water ( 2.75 litres ) and let them soak for 36 hours . After 24 hours  I added 4 cinnamon sticks for 12 hours .
At the end of the soaking time , remove the cinnamon sticks and add 3 peeled and chopped Granny Smith apples and boil gently until tender .
Now it is time to add 2 tsp of cracked black pepper
1 scant tsp of crushed chilli
1 and 1/2 cups of sultanas
1 tbs of cardamom seeds and 2 tbs of cardamom paste .
Stir to combine and bring back to a slow boil .
Reduce  heat and add 10 cups of sugar or alternate sweetener ( making allowance for ingredient conversion ), boil till the mixture starts to thicken .
This jelly is a perfect condiment with pork and is equally good with silverside .
