Osmanthus Konnyaku Jelly (桂花糕)

My colleague had given me some of her Osmanthus. I love the aroma of the flowers. So, I decided to use them to make this jelly for my children. 







Ingredients:-
- 1 packet of pre-sweetened konnyaku jelly powder
- water (according to the konnyaku jelly powder box instructions)
- 1.5tsp dried osmanthus flowers 桂花
- jelly moulds

Directions:-
1. Bring water to boil. Add konnyaku jelly powder. Stir until the powder is fully dissolved.
2. Lower heat and add osmanthus flowers. Simmer for a short few minutes (roughly 2 minutes).
3. Pour jelly mixture into prepared moulds.
4. Let cool down to room temperature and put in fridge to chill before unmoulding.

*To unmould, just pry using a toothpick.
