Pimm's and Strawberry Jelly

Thursday 9 June 2011

Fancy something summery for only 2 Pro Points per serving? This Pimms and Strawberry jelly is perfect for all the nice weather we are having at the moment, is pretty guilt free and easy to make, lovely stuff!




Ingredients

150ml (1/4 pint) of Pimm's
8 sheets of Gelatine
600ml (1 pint) of sparkling water, I used a strawberry flavour one but you could use lemonade or any flavour  soft drink.
125g of Strawberries, sliced
Mint and cucumber to decorate

Instructions

Put the gelatine in a bowl of cold water and leave to soak for 5 minutes.

Put half of the Pimm's into a saucepan and heat until it simmers. Remove the gelatine from the bowl and squeeze the excess water out, add the gelatine to the pan and remove from the heat. Stir until dissolved.

Stir the remaining Pimm's and water into the mix. Put a slice of strawberry in the bottom of 6 small moulds or glasses and pour the mixture over, just enough to cover the strawberry. Chill for 30 minutes.

Repeat this step of adding more strawberries and mixture until it is used up and leave to chill for 3 hours until set. (I found that they tasted better the next day)

Voila!
