First, we need to clean the pomegranates, I cut them in half then hit them with the back of a spoon to release the seeds. If you want to go faster, you can squeeze the juice. Put the obtained seeds in a pot, add the chopped apples, sugar, and squeezed lemon juice.
Mix. Put on the stove and cook for about 40 minutes. Skim off the foam with a spoon and stir occasionally.
Place the obtained mixture in a blender and blend. Strain the seeds and put back on the stove. Cook until the desired thickness is achieved.
Pour into previously sterilized jars. Close and invert to create a vacuum seal.
Enjoy your meal!
