Method

  • step 1

    Put 150ml water and the sugar in a large saucepan and heat gently until the sugar has completely dissolved. Add the strawberries, bring to the boil, then bubble for 5 mins without stirring, until the fruit has softened and the liquid is red, fragrant and syrupy.

  • step 2

    Strain the hot syrup through a sieve into a large jug (be careful not to push the strawberries through the sieve as the jelly will become cloudy), then leave to cool for a few mins. Discard the cooked strawberries. While the syrup is cooling, soak the gelatine in a bowl of cold water. When soft, squeeze the excess water from the gelatine sheets and stir into the syrup until completely melted.

  • step 3

    Divide the extra strawberries between 6 x 200-250ml Champagne flutes or stemmed glasses. Open the Prosecco, mix it briefly with the strawberry syrup, then pour into the glasses over the strawberries. Chill overnight, then serve.

RECIPE TIPS
TIP

Alcohol sets more softly than other liquids, so these jellies need to be very well chilled. Make them a day ahead, then whip them out of the fridge before serving.

Made this for the first time for a girlie lunch. Very quick and simple - agree with other comments about the prosecco fizzing, but don't panic - it settled after a few minutes. Used a good quality gelatine as instructed and the set was delightful - very delicate and elegant although it did need…

I did this for 90th birthday party. After reading the comments I was a bit apprehensive of doing it. Should not have worried it went down a storm had a request to do it again

the idea seems fancy and eventful... the taste is disappointing, not a great pudding

Really beautiful but you MUST make sure you stir the Prosecco in well before pouring into the moulds - I had to use two moulds from this recipe and the first one set in an hour, the other took over a day to set.

I found the jelly set really easily.

I did find the prosecco fizzed up A LOT and so I had to wait 10 minutes to stir everything together.
