Step 1
Combine raspberries and sugar in a heavy saucepan over medium-high heat.
Step 2
Stir constantly, crushing berries against the pan sides, until mixture boils vigorously.
Step 3
Squeeze in lemon juice and stir once, then remove from heat immediately.
Step 4
Let cool 2 minutes — jam will thicken as it cools, so don't expect it to be thick on the stove.
Step 5
Pour into a clean jar and serve warm on toast or store in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
