How to Make Guava Cheese
Wash your guavas and cut into 4 from an end. Do not remove the skin.
Slice off the seeds and chop into small pieces.
Place the chopped guavas in a cooking pan and add water to cover.
Cook until soft and strain through a cloth, squeezing and keeping the pulp for the cheese.
Make jam with the pulp, by mixing 4 cups pulp to 2 tbsp lemon juice and your desired quantity of sugar.
Cook the mixture over medium heat, stirring to avoid scorching, till it leaves the sides of the pan and forms a ball.
Spread on to a greased plate to set. Cut into squares and store in an airtight jar.
