I served it with Mango sorbet, not my own, and it was lovely and refereshing for a warm July day.

Strawberry Jelly
Now I know that Delia will be frowning and tutting at me, but I didn't make my own jelly for this, I took my inspiration from Delia's Summer Collection but also from her Cheat cookbook! So I used a Robertson's strawbery jelly and added sliced strawberries which had been quickly mascerated in a teaspoon of caster sugar and a squeeze of lime juice. Set that in a loaf tin lined with clingfilm and you have something quite impressive.

How yummy! Pretty too!
ReplyDeletelove this Jasmine and me made something similar recently
ReplyDeleteLooks very tasty, Janice :) I'd be tempted to pour a splash of alcohol in it, after seeing a champagne fruit jelly thingy on Come Dine With Me last night. Hopefully the sorbet weather continues :)
ReplyDeleteIt does look impressive. I'm enjoying sorbets in the summer weather too! I like the idea of a mango sorbet - even if it's not your own.
ReplyDeleteWe take our jelly to work like this in the summer months, set in individual containers. It is a nice treat with fresh berries, looks very pretty ;0)
ReplyDeleteThere are times when cheating is definitely not frowned upon - it's an essential. This looks fabulous, Janice - and great idea with the mold.
ReplyDeleteUsed to be allowed to eat the odd cube of jelly when I was little as a treat. Never had it with real strawberries in though - nice idea.
ReplyDeleteThat looks so lovely and refreshing!
