Carambola, a familiar fruit at Malaysian markets, lends this jam its star-shaped slices. A cinnamon-infused syrup softens the fruit's tartness, turning it into a jam that travels well on bread in a lunchbox.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Prepare the star fruit

10 min

Slice the star fruit thick enough to keep its star shape and remove the seeds.

2

Make the syrup

5 min

Combine the sugar, water and cinnamon stick in a pot and bring to the boil.

3

Cook

20 min

Add the star fruit slices and simmer gently over low heat, stirring occasionally, for 20 minutes until thickened.

4

Finish and jar

2 min

Add the lemon juice and cook for 2 more minutes, then remove from the heat. Transfer to a jar and let cool for 5 minutes.

Reminder

Don't slice the star fruit too thin, or the star shapes disappear during cooking and the jam turns into a smooth paste.
