a celebratory spoonful

for Macro Mondays: celebration

 

Christmas mincemeat

1 medium cooking apple, peeled, cored, chopped small * 4oz brown sugar * 8oz veg suet

8oz sultanas * 8oz raisins * 8oz currants * 4oz mixed peel

zest & juice of 1 lemon * 3 tablespoons sherry or brandy

 

Put all into a large bowl, mix well, cover with clingfilm, leave to stand a few days, stirring each day, spoon into jars.

I usually give most jars away visiting friends before Christmas but this year we will eat it all ourselves.....
