Dessert Recipes - Jelly Berry Loaf Recipe

Ingredients

• 15 ml/1 tbsp powdered gelatin

• 600 ml/2 1/2 cups pure orange juice

• Lemon juice

• 8 strawberries, sliced

• 100 g/4 oz blueberries

• 100 g/4 oz raspberries

Method:

1. Sprinkle the gelatin over a little of the orange juice and the sugar in a small bowl. Leave to soften for 5 minutes.

2. Stand the bowl in a pan of hot water and stir until the gelatin has  dissolved completely. Stir into the remaining orange juice. Chill until on the point of setting.

3. Meanwhile, slice the bananas and toss in lemon juice to prevent browning. Pour a little of the orange mixture in the base of a 1.2 liter/2 pt/5 cup loaf tin (pan) or terrine.

4. Arrange a layer of banana slices on top. Pour on more of the nearly set jelly (jello) and add a layer of sliced strawberries. Repeat with the blueberries, then the raspberries.

5. Continue layering, finishing with a layer of the rest of the jelly. Chill until set.

6. Dip the base of the tin briefly in hot water, then turn out on to a serving plate. Serve sliced.
