Strawberry & mint jam

Strawberry & mint jam - Preparation time 15 mins.
We used to take orange marmalade and strawberry jam for bread toast. So i want to make strawberry jam in home using fresh strawberries and mint. When i tried out the jam came out well so thought of sharing this recipe with you all. If strawberries are sweet the amount of sugar we add will be less else we have to add more sugar. I haven't added any preservative so jam have to be refrigerated and used if used for more than 2 days. 

Ingredients:-
Fresh strawberries - 15 (cleaned and made into small pieces)
Sugar - 1 cup (or more if strawberry is bit sour)
Mint leaves - 10 

Preparation method:-
In a pan add the strawberry pieces along with mint leaves and start cooking. When it is almost cooked add the sugar and cook.

Cool the jam and transfer to a bottle. This goes very well with bread and chapathi.
