Cooking method:

Step 1: Prepare the Fruits

  1. Clean and chop the fruits into small pieces. Remove any pits or seeds, if necessary. 
  2. If you prefer a smoother jelly without fruit chunks, you can blend the fruits in a blender or strain them through a sieve to remove any solid parts.

Step 2: Make the Jelly Base

  1. In a small saucepan, mix the sugar and water. Heat over medium heat, stirring, until the sugar is completely dissolved. 
  2. Once the sugar is dissolved, add the fruits and lemon juice (if using).
  3. Let the mixture come to a boil and simmer for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 3: Prepare the Gelatin

  1. In a separate bowl, dissolve the gelatin in a small amount of cold water (follow the instructions on the package). 
  2. Allow the gelatin to swell for a few minutes, then place the bowl of gelatin in the microwave or in a double boiler to melt it completely. 
  3. Once the gelatin is fully dissolved, add it to the saucepan with the fruit mixture. Stir well to ensure even distribution of the gelatin.

Step 4: Pour into Molds

  1. While the mixture is still hot, carefully pour it into jelly molds or small glass containers. 
  2. Allow the jelly to cool to room temperature, then transfer it to the refrigerator for several hours or until fully set.

Step 5: Serving and Decoration

  1. Once the jelly is completely set, it is ready to be served. 
  2. You can garnish the top of the jelly with fresh fruits, whipped cream, or mint leaves. 
  3. Serve the jelly chilled and enjoy!
