Layered Jelly


Ajoy and myself we both love jelly a lot. There was time when I use to prepare it almost daily. It felt so good to eat it in the hot summer days. But last week i had this great idea of having layers and i experimented it and it turned out really nice. But I prepared it in one big steel bowl so could not take any snap. So yesterday I tried it again and put it in to small round icecream cups. And here is the output, attractive, tasty and simple to prepare nice dessert :)

Layered Jelly
Ingredients
1 Cherry Flavour Jelly Mix
1 Pineapple Flavoured Jelly Mix
1 Litre Water

Method
  • Boil the 500ml of water and mix it with cherry flavoured Jelly mix
  • Set it into ice cream cups but filling only half the size.
  • Now boil remaining water and mix the pineapple jelly mix
  • Set it on top of cherry flavoured jelly in the ice-cream cups filling them completely.
  • Refrigerate it once completely set
  • Serve in the cup as it is or cut them into shapes and serve.

Notes
The cherry flavoured jelly should be completely set before pouring the pinaepple jelly mix.
Also while pouring pineapple mixture on top of cherry jelly, one needs to be very very careful as otherwise portion of red jelly might come out and mix in pineapple jelly. So pour it slowly so that it flowes over cherry jelly without any damage.
I had prepared the strawberry and orange layed jelly earlier but i think this looks and tastes best. You can try other options that you like. You can add mode layers as well.
I used Weikfield Jelly Mix to get prepare the jelly and custard, if you use different brand the recipe for jelly might be different.

Fruit Salad with Jelly and Custard


Since childhood i just loved fruits and fruit salad too.. So today when i went to market and saw so many fruits, i just couldn't resist preparing this for dessert.. It was yummy...

Fruit Salad With Jelly and Custard
Ingredients
1 Apple
2 Sapota
2 Sweet lime
2 Oranges
1/2 cup grapes
2 Bananas
1/2 pomegranate
5-6 Strawberries
1 packet of Custard Powder
2 packets of Jelly Mix
1/2 liter Milk
2 spoon sugar

Method
  • Boil 900ml of water and mix it with the both jelly mix
  • Set the jelly in the mould and keep aside
  • Mix custard powder in little milk
  • Boil rest of the milk adding sugar to it
  • When milk is boiled, add the custard pate and cook for about 3-4 minutes with constant stirring. Keep aside
  • Refrigerate jelly and custard
  • Cut apple, sapotas, bananas, sweet limes, oranges into small pieces, removing their covers, seeds etc
  • Mix them grapes
  • While serving add a layer of fruits in a bowl
  • Cut jelly into cubes and add a layer of jelly pieces on top of fruits
  • Add custard on top of it and put a cut strawberry and pomegranates on it

Notes
I used Weikfield Jelly and Custard Powder to get prepare the jelly and custard, if you use different brand the recipe for jelly and custard might be different.
You can also try two different flavours of jelly mix. I used Rasberry and Banana flavour of jelly and lemon flavour of custard.
On top of this custard you can add a scoop of vanilla or your choice of ice-cream and make a more grand dessert.
You can add pinapple as well in the fruit salad or omit the fruits that are not available.. This would taste even nice with only with a single fruit say like lychee
