Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large (about 500 grams peeled and pitted) Fresh ripe mangoes
- 250 ml Water
- 2 tablespoons Unflavored gelatin powder
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lime juice
- 250 ml Mango or orange juice
- 10 leaves (optional for garnish) Mint leaves
Instructions
Peel and pit the mangoes, then cut the flesh into chunks.
Place the mango chunks in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth to create a mango puree.
In a small saucepan, combine 250 ml of water with the gelatin powder.
Heat the mixture over low heat, stirring continuously, until the gelatin dissolves completely without letting it boil. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the honey until fully integrated.
Add the lime juice, 250 ml of mango or orange juice, and the blended mango puree to the gelatin mixture. Stir until well combined.
Pour the mixture into a jelly mold or individual serving dishes.
Refrigerate the jelly for at least 4 hours or until set.
Once the jelly is set, unmold it if desired and serve chilled.
Garnish with mint leaves before serving for an extra touch of freshness.
