{'text': "Coconut jelly is a delightful and refreshing dessert that combines the creamy richness of coconut milk with the tangy sweetness of passion fruit.

Ingredients:

2 cups coconut milk
460g
1 tbsp gelatin powder
16g
1 cup sugar
200g
1 cup passion fruit
230g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Gelatin Mix:
- In a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin powder over 1/4 cup of cold water and let it sit for about 5 minutes to bloom. This ensures the gelatin granules absorb the water and soften.
2. Heat the Coconut Milk:
- In a medium saucepan, combine the coconut milk and sugar.
- Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the sugar is completely dissolved. Do not let it boil.
3. Dissolve Gelatin:
- Once the sugar is dissolved and the coconut milk is warm (but not boiling), remove the saucepan from the heat.
- Add the bloomed gelatin to the warm coconut milk mixture, stirring continuously until the gelatin completely dissolves. Make sure there are no lumps.
4. Combine with Passion Fruit:
- Stir in the passion fruit pulp into the coconut milk mixture, ensuring it’s evenly distributed.
5. Cool and Pour:
- Allow the mixture to cool slightly for about 10 minutes. This helps to prevent the ingredients from separating.
- Pour the mixture into serving dishes, molds, or a large shallow dish if you plan to cut it into squares later.
6. Set the Jelly:
- Transfer the filled dishes to the refrigerator and let them chill for at least 4 hours, or until the jelly is fully set. For best results, leave it to set overnight.
7. Serve:
- Once fully set, remove from the fridge.
- If using molds, you might need to dip them in warm water for a few seconds to loosen the jelly before turning it out onto a plate.
- Garnish with extra passion fruit pulp or fresh fruit if desired.
8. Enjoy:
- Your refreshing Coconut Jelly with Passion Fruit is now ready to be enjoyed!

Tips:

- Use fresh coconut milk for the best flavor. Canned coconut milk works too, but ensure it's well-mixed before using.

- For a smoother texture, you can bloom the gelatin powder in a small amount of cold water before adding to the coconut milk mixture.

- Adjust the sweetness by tasting the mixture before allowing it to set. You can add more or less sugar according to your preference.

- Chill the jelly for at least 4 hours to ensure it sets properly. Overnight chilling is even better for a firmer texture.

- Garnish with extra passion fruit seeds or shredded coconut before serving for a touch of elegance and extra flavor.
