Steps

  1. 1
    Put the berries, sugar and water in a small pan over medium heat.
  2. 2
    Bring to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes, stirring, until the fruit collapses and the sugar dissolves. Don't cook it longer: the colour dulls and it starts to taste of jam.
  3. 3
    Blend the fruit with a stick blender, then push it through a fine sieve with the back of a ladle, scraping the underside, to remove the seeds.
  4. 4
    Stir in the lemon juice, taste and add a little more sugar if the berries were sharp.
  5. 5
    Leave to cool, then chill. It thickens slightly as it cools and keeps for five days in the fridge or three months in the freezer.
