2 medium size quince
½ cup sugar
4 cups water
2-3 cloves, optional
1 cinnamon stick, optional
Wash the quince and remove the seeds. Chop them up
equally and transfer to a pot. Add the sugar, water and if desired cloves and
cinnamon as well. Let the sugar dissolve over medium heat stirring
occasionally. Then, once it boils, turn the heat down and cook until the quince
gets soft.
You may adjust the water and sugar amount according
to your like.
Serve either cold or lukewarm.
P.S. For additional health benefits (vitamins and
minerals) add the seeds in and cook with them. You may remove them before
consumption.
