Calories 37kcal
Ingredients
- 2 cups strawberries (400g)
- 1 cup cold water (250ml)
- 1 sachet sugar free jello / jelly powder (0.3oz) strawberry flavoured
- 1 - 2 teaspoon lemon juice optional
Instructions
- Roughly chop up the strawberries and add them to a large saucepan.
- Add the cold water to the strawberries and start to warm over a low heat.
- Use a wooden spoon or a potato masher to mash up the strawberries a little.
- I like to leave some chunks of strawberry intact as I prefer a 'chunkier' jelly but if you prefer a smoother jelly, mash them all up!
- Sprinkle over the jell-o powder and stir in well so that it is thoroughly combined.
- Add the lemon juice if using.
- Turn up the heat a little till the mixture starts to boil making sure that you stir continuously to prevent it sticking to the bottom of the pan.
- Once the mixture starts to boil, reduce the heat and slow simmer for 1 - 2 minutes.
- Remove from the heat.
- Pour into jars and leave to cool thoroughly before placing the lids on.
- I would suggest using smaller jars and freezing some as this jelly does not last long in the refrigerator.
Notes
Makes approx 4 x 8oz jars.
The jelly does not keep for long so it is best to make up smaller jars and freeze some of them for use at a later date.
