Ingredients:

800g (about) ripe pineapple
juice of 1/2 lemon
400g white sugar (adjust)
2 thick slices of ginger
2 cloves
1/4 tsp salt

Method:

Peel and core the pineapple. Wash the flesh and then dice.

Combine all the ingredients in a large pot and stir well to combine. Place over medium heat and bring to a boil.

As soon as you see tiny bubbles forming around the edges of the pot, reduce the heat to as low as it will go and cook for 45-50 minutes. It will change colour and thicken on you continue cooking.

Turn off the heat, fish out the ginger and cloves, then add the lemon juice.
