Ingredients

  • 1 Cup Chopped Fruits Apple, Kiwi, Pomegranate, grapes, pear, etc
  • 2 Cups Water
  • 1.5 tsp Agar Powder
  • 4 Tbsp Powdered Cane Sugar

Variation

  • 3 or 4 Tbsp Mocktail Syrups

Instructions

  1. Chop fruits like apples, kiwi, and pears and grapes, if too big in size. . Separate pomegranate perals.

  2. Place them in moulds. Fill 1/4 to 1/3 of the mould with these fruits. You can even take a wide dish, say of 4 by 6'' and lay fruits in it.

  3. Mix Agar powder in water and put to boil. Add sugar powder also.

  4. Boil it for a minute, this activates the agar and is very important to do so. 

  5. Switch off the flame, add powdered cane sugar and stir so that dissolves fully.

  6. Wait for 4 to 5 minutes so that the solution turns warm from hot. Pour this in the moulds.

  7. Leave it for an hour or so or till set. If you set in a big container, it may take more time to set. You may keep in the refrigerator but not necessary as it sets at room temperature.

  8. Unmould. Keep in the refrigerator as they taste good when cold otherwise you can have them as it is also.

Variation

  1. Once the hot agar solution turns warm from hot then divide it into 2 or 3 parts.

  2. Mix in mocktail syrups, like I added Orange marmalade, kiwi crush and Strawberry crush.

  3. Leave it to set at kitchen counteronly or in the refrigerator.

  4. Once set, scoop out like balls or just cut and use.

Recipe Notes

  1. I used unrefined cane sugar powder also known as Boora sugar.
  2. In case, agar solution sets in the pan only (before putting it over fruits) then heat it again. On reheating it will again return to its liquid state. 
  3. You can use fruit juice also. In that case, take half water and half juice. Boil agar in water. Heat juice for 30 seconds or so till gets lukewarm. Now, add hot agar solution to the warm juice. Mix the two and pour over the fruits.
