I have now tried 3 different internet recipes to make coconut jelly and each one has been a failure. When I put it in the fridge to set it always splits.
Does anyone have a foolproof recipe please?

Morning tony
If I didn't put it in the fridge it would be called a coconut jelly flavoured drink ;-)
what's the setting agent?
Morning mrs o, would it not set if you just put it in a cool place though mrs o but not the fridge.
could you not just make the jelly and sprinkle the coconut on top ?

Morning humber
I use Supercook gelatine strips. They work for every other jelly I make

morning anne
I am after making the lovely white coconut jelly you find in Chinese restaurants for a chinese banquet night I am planning
Question Author
Mmm, good thinking tony, I might try that
oh sounds lovely. are the invites ' in the post ' ?
oops, manners morning mrs o,

not as daft as it seems, it should overnight-ish if you leave it in a cool place
Question Author
anne, they are being posted tomorrow :-)
*set

Question Author
Thanks, I will try that with attempt #4
I am determined to make it!
...and then chill them

what recipes have you tried?
Oi, of course it's a bloody good idea.
Question Author
tony, pass on my thanks to mrs av ;-)

the recipes are all basically the same - light coconut milk, gelatine & sugar
Doh.
I think it's the initial heat that's probably splitting it actually, try getting the liquid you're adding it to as cool as practically possible

Question Author
I never thought of that humber, I will give it a go. Thanks.
