Steps

1

Place the sugar and the water in a pot over low heat.
2

Mix until the sugar dissolves completely but WITHOUT allowing the syrup to come to the boil, then remove from heat.
3

Peel the fruits and remove the pit as well as the red part of the flesh that surrounds the pit. Place them in the jars.
4

Pour the ready syrup in the jars so that it covers the fruits.
5

Place a tall pot over heat with enough water to cover the jars when you put them inside.
6

As soon as the water starts boiling place -very carefully so that you don't get a burn- the jars in it.
7

Boil for 15΄- 25΄from the moment you place them in the pot and depending on how ripe the fruits are.
8

Set the pot aside and leave them in it for an additional 20΄.
9

Then remove them and as soon as they cool they are ready to store even outside the fridge.
