This easy to prepare jam makes a tasty treat, and is the perfect
conclusion to our Virgin Island favorites week.

Mango Jam

6 cups (1.5 L) semi-ripe or ripe mango slices
2 cups (500 ml) water
3 cups (750 ml) sugar
1 Tbs (15 ml) vanilla extract

Combine the mango slices and water in a saucepan and boil over
moderate heat for 15 minutes, until the mangoes are tender. Press
this mixture through a sieve, or process in and electric blender or
food processor until smooth. Return to the saucepan and add the sugar
and vanilla extract. Boil for 30 to 40 minutes, until thick and the
proper consistency for a jam. Pour into hot sterilized jars and seal.
