Almond Jelly with Longans

I can't bake and working with precise measurements fills me with dread and rebellion so most of my 'desserts' are either bought/donated or simple like this.
Make the jelly by mixing almond jelly powder with water. Bring to the boil. Cool slightly and allow to set in fridge.
Cut into any shape.
Open a tin of longans, tip into a bowl syrup and all, add jelly.

There you go, bung into the fridge and serve with lotsa ice.

It was a good excuse to use my lovely crystal footed bowl (one of a set) which is all of 18 years old, I used a melamine serving spoon as anything harder may cause scratches or chips.
