ingredients
225g/9oz seedless grapes
1 tbsp finely grated orange zest
225ml/9fl oz sweet white wine
2 star anise
4 tbsp artificial sweetener
2 sachets gelatine
225ml/9fl oz clear grape juice
4 tbsp fat-free natural yogurt
a pinch of grated nutmeg
method
1.
Halve the grapes and divide between four glasses. Put the orange zest, wine and star anise in a pan, bring to the boil and simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from the heat, stir in the sweetener and strain into a bowl (reserving the star anise). Add the gelatine to the bowl and stir to dissolve before adding the grape juice and leaving to cool.
2.
Pour the cooled mixture over the grapes and place the glasses in the fridge for 4-5 hours until completely set. Serve each jelly topped with a little yogurt, a sprinkling of nutmeg and the reserved star anise.
Tip: Agar agar can be used instead of gelatine, if preferred.
