Instructions
- Split the vanilla pod and scrape out the seeds.
- In a saucepan, mix the coconut, coconut milk, sugar, vanilla seeds and pod.
- Heat gently, stirring regularly, until it starts to simmer.
- Let it simmer for 30 to 40 minutes, stirring, until the mixture thickens and turns a light golden colour.
- Remove the vanilla pod, then pour the still-warm jam into clean jars.
- Let it cool; the jam thickens as it cools.
Variations and tips
Version without coconut milk. Replace the coconut milk with 40 cl of whole milk for a softer, less fragrant jam.
