Watermelon compote with lemon for the winter

This compote has a very bright and rich taste of watermelon, which goes well with lemon sourness.

Ingredients

Cooking process

step 1 out of 5
Cut the watermelon into wedges and remove the tough crust. If a small part of the white layer remains, it's okay, this will not affect the taste in any way. Cut the slices into cubes and remove as many bones as possible.
step 2 out of 5
Cut the lemon into thin half rings or quarters. Place the watermelon pulp and citrus in a deep saucepan and top with an even layer of sugar. Leave the mixture to stand for 10-15 minutes, so that the watermelon lets the juice and the sugar begins to gradually dissolve.
step 3 out of 5
Put the saucepan over the heat and bring the liquid to a boil, stirring constantly. Reduce heat slightly and simmer until liquid visually resembles syrup.
step 4 out of 5
Remove the pan from heat and cool the compote to room temperature. You can taste it and adjust the amount of sugar if necessary. Bring the compote to a boil again, reduce heat and cook for 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Let the contents cool slightly.
step 5 out of 5
Beforehand, be sure to sterilize the dishes in which you will roll the compote, including the lids. The easiest way is to put them in boiling water for a few minutes, and put the jars upside down for 10-15 minutes over the steam. After sterilization, let everything dry and cool. Then pour the prepared compote into the jars, roll them up on a turnkey basis and let the jar with the compote cool completely. It is better to pre-wrap the roll in a blanket so that the temperature drops more slowly.
Bon Appetit!
