RASPBERRY JELLY

Steps:

• Combine fruit and water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cook, partially covered, mashing occasionally with a potato masher, until fruit is very soft, 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer mixture to a fine sieve set over a heatproof bowl; let drain without pressing on fruit, 4 hours. Strain again through sieve lined with damp cheesecloth. Measure juice; you will have 3 to 4 cups.
• In a large heavy-bottomed pot, bring juice to a boil. Add 3/4 cup sugar for each cup of juice. Add lemon juice and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Return to a boil and cook, stirring frequently, 8 to 12 minutes. To test if jelly is done, dip a large metal spoon in, lift it horizontally above pot, and let mixture drip back in. Jelly is done when mixture has thickened slightly and drops of it slide together off spoon in a sheet. (Temperature should register 221 degrees on a candy thermometer.) Skim foam from top.
• Ladle jelly into clean containers, leaving 3/4 inch of headroom. Let cool completely. Cover, label, and refrigerate up to 1 month, or freeze up to 1 year.

GRASS JELLY DESSERT

Steps:

• Whisk together the coconut milk, sweetened condensed milk, ice cubes and a pinch of salt in a medium bowl or 4-cup pitcher. Refrigerate the coconut milk mixture until chilled.
• Divide the grass jelly (if some liquid goes onto the plate, it's ok), mango, strawberries and tapioca pearls among 4 shallow bowls. Pour about 2/3 cup of the chilled coconut mixture into each bowl. Top with a scoop of ice cream, if desired, and enjoy immediately.

ROTE GRUTZE (RED FRUIT JELLY)

Steps:

• In a small pot bring the fruit juice or water, vanilla and sugar to a boil.
• Meanwhile combine starch and cold water in a small bowl and stir to mix.
• When water is just starting to boil, add starch mixture.
• Let it come to a full boil; make sure to stir well as the starch will form lumps if you don't.
• Mix in berries and turn off the heat.
• Let your pot stand on the hot stove top for one or two more minutes, stirring once or twice.
• Pour everything into a bowl and chill until the jelly has thickened. This might take one or two hours depending on how thick you want your jelly to be.
• Serve with topping of your choice, or plain, and enjoy!

RED FRUIT JELLY DESSERT

Steps:

• Mix the red fruit jelly and the yoghurt. Blend well until it has a creamy texture and a light pink colour.
• Add whatever you like (e.g. grated chocolate, fresh berries, nut pieces, etc.). You can also use it as a topping for waffels or pancakes.
