What is Banana and Chilli Jam?

The major difference being that this process preserves actual chunks of fruits in it, while jams don't. These are usually used as condiments or spreads and even accompaniments on some platters.

Recipe Note

While making the jam one needs to keep in mind that the consistency of the jam is going to thicken once it cools down. So, while cooking it we should finish it off at one stage thinner than we want it.
