      Notes :
      • You can use any sweet tasting fruits of your choice. But using red grapes/ strawberries gives red colour to the jam.
      • Also adding orange juice/lemon juice increase shelf life. Don't skip it.
      • Make sure your kid is not allergic to any of the fruits before you add it to this mixed fruits jam.
      • The quantity of the sweetener depends on the sweetness of fruits. Check and Adjust before cooking and after pureeing the fruits.
      • Use a clean jar to store the jam. If preparing the jam in large quantities, I would suggest to sterilize the glass jars.
      • Check the jam consistency by place a spoonful of jam in a plate and cool it down. After cooling down, if no water separated then its the correct consistency for a jam.
      • You can use white sugar instead of brown sugar/powdered jaggery. But to make it healthy, always use brown sugar or jaggery.
      • Keep it refrigerated and consume with in a couple of weeks. But it keeps well for a month if handled properly.
      • Always check with your pediatrician before introducing any new food.
