Jelly and fruit

Again, making use of the microwave this time to cook a family favourite.

Get a microwavable jug and cut the jelly up into the 100ml of water.
For a 1000Watt microwave, cook for a minute on high.
Stir in the jelly: if any solid lumps of jelly remain, cook for a further 10 seconds.
Open tin of mandarins and pour off the juice into jug with jelly solution.
Pour the mandarins into a glass bowl with a lid - this works really well for a frost free fridge!
Make up level of jelly, juice and water to 500ml and pour over mandarins.
Allow to cool down for 20 minutes then place in the fridge to set. Typically this takes 4 hours.

Serve as is or with ice-cream or cream.
