Exotic Jelly Cups (Vegan)
- 1 cup papaya, slightly mashed
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 tablespoon agar-agar flakes
- 12 teaspoon strawberry extract (to cut a little of the strong papaya flavour)
- 2 12 cups flavoured soymilk (I used orange, peach & mango smoothie)
- 12 cup water
- 3 tablespoons agar-agar flakes
- 12 tablespoon orange blossom water (optional)
- 40 plastic cups (shooter sized, can be found at a dollar store)
- Cook papaya with sugar until soft.
- Mash to desired consistence (if you don't want chunks, puree in blender and/or strain).
- Mix in papaya 1 tbsp agar-agar flakes and strawberry extract, set aside.
- In the meantime, dip shooter cups in cold water, drain (do not dry), and place on a tray.
- Return saucepan to the stove and bring to a boil on medium-low heat, stirring often.
- Stirring constantly, simmer 5 minutes, or until agar-agar is completely dissolved (the flakes are very hard to see in the puree, so I recommend simmering the entire 5 minutes).
- Distribute evenly in the shooter cups (about 1/2 tsp per cup).
- Refrigerate.
- In a saucepan, combine soy milk, water, 3 tbsp agar-agar, and orange water (if using) and bring to a boil, on medium-low heat, stirring often.
- While milk is heating (don't forget to keep an eye on it), remove cups from refrigerator and lightly score the surface with a fork.
- Stirring constantly, simmer 2-5 minutes, or until agar-agar is completely dissolved.
- Distribute evenly into shooter cups (should be about 2/3 full).
- They will take approximately 4 hours to set at room temperature or 2 hours in the refrigerator.
