Wash and chop the fruit into bite-sized pieces. You can use a single type of fruit or mix different kinds for a colorful and flavorful jelly.
Make the Agar-Agar Mixture:
In a saucepan, bring the water to a boil. Once boiling, add the agar-agar powder and stir continuously until it’s completely dissolved. This usually takes about 1-2 minutes. If you’re adding a splash of lemon or lime juice, do so now for an extra zing.
Combine Fruit and Agar-Agar:
Remove the saucepan from heat and let it cool slightly for about a minute. Arrange the chopped fruit in a mold or serving dish.
Pour the agar-agar mixture over the fruit, making sure it’s evenly distributed. The mixture will start to set as it cools.
Chill the Jelly:
Place the mold or dish in the refrigerator for about 15-20 minutes, or until the jelly is fully set. Agar-agar sets quickly at room temperature, but chilling will ensure it’s firm and refreshing.
Serve:
Once set, your fruit jelly is ready to be enjoyed! Slice it into pieces or scoop it out with a spoon. This dessert is best served cold and can be garnished with fresh mint leaves for a touch of elegance.
