Ingredients:
-
2 tablespoons Gelito Halal Gelatin
-
1/4 cup warm water (to dissolve gelatin)
-
2 cups full-fat milk
-
1/2 cup condensed milk (adjust for sweetness)
-
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice (strained)
-
1 teaspoon lemon zest (optional, for added flavor)
-
2 tablespoons sugar (optional)
Instructions:
1. Dissolve the Gelatin
In a small bowl, mix Gelito Halal Gelatin with 1/4 cup warm water. Stir well and set aside for 5 minutes to bloom.
2. Warm the Milk
In a saucepan, heat the full-fat milk on low flame. Add sugar (if using) and stir until dissolved. Do not boil.
3. Add Condensed Milk
Once the milk is warm, add condensed milk and mix thoroughly to get a creamy texture.
4. Add Lemon Juice & Zest
Turn off the heat. Let the mixture cool slightly before adding the lemon juice and zest. Stir well to combine.
Note: If the milk is too hot, the lemon juice may curdle it. Let it cool to lukewarm before mixing.
5. Add Gelatin
Add the dissolved Gelito gelatin to the mixture and stir until fully incorporated.
6. Set the Jelly
Pour the mixture into molds, ramekins, or a glass dish. Let it cool at room temperature for 10–15 minutes.
7. Chill and Serve
Refrigerate for 3–4 hours or until the jelly is fully set. Garnish with lemon slices or mint before serving.
