• 1

  Prepare the Ingredients

  You take 5g of agar powder and mix it well with 25g of sugar, then dissolve it in a pot containing 150ml of filtered water. Let the mixture rest for about 30 minutes after it has completely dissolved in the water.

  While waiting for the agar to soak, you proceed to cut the fruits. Use a knife to cut the watermelon in half lengthwise. After that, scoop out the flesh of the watermelon, remove the seeds, and cut it into small cubes. Keep the watermelon rind intact to use as a mold.

  For the remaining fruits like mango, dragon fruit, and pineapple, peel them, remove the eyes, and cut them into bite-sized cubes. You should not cut the fruits into pieces that are too large as this will affect the texture of the jelly.

  After preparing the fruits, mix all the ingredients together and place them in the refrigerator refrigerator. As for the mold, leave it at room temperature.

  Cooking the Jelly

  You proceed to place the jelly pot on the stove to boil and keep the heat medium. Then, you use a spoon to stir gently and evenly in one direction until the jelly mixture in the pot boils, then you reduce the heat to low.

  Continue to cook the mixture for about 2 more minutes until you see the mixture turns clear, then turn off the heat.

  During the boiling process, you should pay attention to ensure the boiling temperature so that when poured into the mold, the jelly will set tightly and look beautiful.

  Tip:

  • During the boiling process, you should ensure that the boiling temperature of the mixture remains stable to ensure that the jelly structure is firm and beautiful when poured into the mold. Remember to skim off the foam to keep the top of the jelly smooth and nice.
  • The boiling time is usually about 5 – 7 minutes. If you keep the temperature low or for a short time, the jelly powder won’t fully boil, and the jelly won’t expand evenly, leading to water separation and poor taste.

  Pouring the mold

  You successively pour a layer of jelly water into the mold, then add a layer of fruit, and continue doing this until the mold is full, ensuring that the top layer is jelly.

  Next, you secure the mold and wrap it tightly with plastic wrap, then place it in the refrigerator and wait until the fruit jelly completely sets together in about 1 – 2 hours before enjoying.
