We have an orchard with many apple trees and a small kitchen garden with vegetables, including rhubarb. I have found various ways of using up the apples that don’t look presentable enough for the fruit bowl. We serve this jam to our guests as a treat at breakfast time and they love it!

Place the apples and rhubarb in a

well and sterilise in the oven, then pot the jam, allow to cool and seal.
