Cook Time: 40 minutes

Total Time: 55 minutes

Yield: Two 4oz jars

Ingredients:

• 1 lb shredded carrots
• 2/3 lb granulated sugar
• 2 1/4 cup water
• 2 Tbsp lemon juice
• 4 cardamom pods, slightly crushed
• 1/2 cup almond sticks
• 1/4 cup pistachio sticks

Steps:

1. Place carrots, sugar, water, and cardamom in a large pot and bring to a boil.

 
2. Remove any scum that may surface at the top, then continue to simmer for 30 minutes, until carrots go a bit clear and mixture is syrupy.

 
3. Shut off the heat and add the almonds and pistachios. Mix well so they soften. Allow to sit until it cools completely.

4. Transfer to sterilized jars and seal. You can leave the cardamom pods in the jars, but do remove them if you come across one when eating.

 
5. The jam will keep well in the fridge for about a month. Enjoy!
