Step 1
For the mincemeat, both zestsand juices in a medium-size pan. Peel, quarter and core the apple, then coarsely grate, stirring itinto the juices as you grate to stop the apple from browning.
Step 2
Add the butter, rum, dried fruit, mixed peel and spices and cook over a low heat, stirring frequently, for about 1 hour until the apple has broken down, the dried fruit has plumped up and all the liquid has been absorbed.
Step 3
Stir in the sugar and set aside to cool, then stir in the chopped almonds. Spoon the mincemeat into sterilised jars (see Know-how), then press a waxed disc firmly onto the surface of the mixture and seal immediately. Store in the fridge until needed and use to make our spiced mincemeat cake.
