Osmanthus Jelly


Tried a recipe posted by a friend some time ago. Looks really good and it sure tastes as well as it looks. This recipe takes about 30 minutes to complete for a noob cook like me. :)

Ingredients required for this dessert:
  • 1 pack of Konnyaku premix jelly powder 250g (makes about 32 jelly)
  • 3 tsps of Osmanthus
  • 3-4 tbsp Wolfberries (soaked in water)
  • Water chestnuts cut into small cubes (you may add other fruits or anything you like)
  • 1250ml of water
Method:
  1. Place about 4-5 wolfberries into each of the jelly mould. Do likewise for the cubed water chestnut.
  2. Boil 1250ml of water in a pot.
  3. When boiled, turn to low heat and add Osmanthus.
  4. Let it simmer for about 3-5 mins.
  5. Pour the Konnyaku premix jelly powder gradually into the boiling water stirring at the same time until the powder is fully dissolved. Turn off the flame.
  6. Pour the jelly solution into each of the jelly mould; let it cool before placing the jelly mould into the refrigerator to set the jelly. *When the jelly cooled, the mould already set. So you might want to arrange the wolfberries and water chestnut while it is going to be cooled.
