Jelly
Jelly is a sweet, wobbly dessert made by dissolving flavored gelatin (or agar-agar for a vegetarian/vegan version) in hot water and then allowing it to set in the refrigerator.
Ingredients
- 1 packet flavored jelly crystals (about 90 g)
- 2 cups hot water (boiling)
- 1 cup cold water
(Optional: fresh fruits like strawberries, grapes, or apples – avoid pineapple, kiwi, or papaya as they prevent jelly from setting.)
Instructions
- Boil water Heat 2 cups of water until it reaches a rolling boil.
- Dissolve jelly crystals Pour the jelly crystals into a mixing bowl. Add the hot water and stir continuously until completely dissolved.
- Add cold water Mix in 1 cup of cold water and stir well.
- Pour into molds Transfer the mixture into molds, cups, or a large dish.
- Chill Place in the refrigerator for at least 3–4 hours, or until firm and set.
- Serve Unmold carefully or serve directly from cups. Garnish with fruit or whipped cream if desired.
