At first I was going to cook three apples, but realized that the jam can escape from my glass bowl in the microwave. So the photo is three apples. Apples and mint wash and dry. With sprigs of mint cut leaves. Apples to clean.

Grate apples on a coarse grater and immediately before they darkened, pour the lemon juice, pour sugar and stir. Add the mint leaves. The amount of mint you can reduce, I like her a lot.

Put in a bowl for the microwave. Note that when you boil volume will be doubled, pick the dishes accordingly. The orange zest. Zest I harvested in advance, mixed with sugar 1:1 and stored in the refrigerator. Mix everything.

The microwave, turn on full power and cook in two stages at 5 minutes, without covering. Between boiling mix. After the second boiling Apple mass acquire density and transparency. This jam can be harvested in the winter, but to cook at one time more than 500 g of fruit is not recommended. The ready-made jam from my serving - 360 g
