Jellies are fun food to eat for kids making the parents long for them to be healthy at the same time. This fruit juice jelly is made up of only three ingredients - Fruit Juice and Agar Agar (China Grass) and sugar(optional). China grass is made from a sea weed and it has no calories. It is a pure vegetarian product. This can be made very easily and will make a perfect fun food for kids birthday parties.One more advantage is that you can make it the previous day and keep it refrigerated.
If you can get some shot glasses(like the ones we use for cheese cakes), you can use them. Then you need not even have to take it out.You can just serve in the shot glasses with some colorful toppings.You can also layer the fruit juices in these glasses so that you can make colorful jellies.
Ingredients
- Apple Juice - 200 ml
- China grass strands - 3
- Sugar - optional (as per taste to sweeten the juice)
Preparation:
- Add 100 ml of juice(optionally mixed with sugar) and the washed china grass in a sauce-pan and let it boil slowly.
- Stir it till all the china grass is dissolved.Strain this into the other 100 ml of the juice and let it cool a little.
- Pour the juice in ice cube trays or any kind of moulds that you want and keep it refrigerated over night or till it sets. I used a candy mould which I had, to make cute shapes.
- It takes nearly 4 hours for setting.
- Once it sets, remove it using a spoon very slowly.
- You can apply some oil in the trays before pouring the juice to make it slide easily.
You can top it with small cubes of the same fruit of the juice you are using or with sweetened cherry halves.
Note: I used tropicana 100% apple juice and "Real brand grape juice" with no added sugar.
