If you love sweets, you love surprising people on Halloween with terrifying treats but you prefer a healthier option, you will like to know that with just a few ingredients you can prepare delicious skull-shaped fruit-based jelly beans with the quick and easy recipe proposed by Chef. Bosquet. The two fruits that Chef Bosquet has chosen, mango and raspberry, to prepare these Halloween sweets are not only delicious, but also provide beneficial nutrients. Ingredients: Peeled ripe mango 200 grams Raspberries 200 grams Agar-agar 1 gram per 100 grams of fruit Mango is rich in vitamin C (up to 44 mg per 100 grams) and is a source of beta-carotene or pro-vitamin A, ( 25 ug per 100 grams). Its contribution of calcium (20 mg per 100 grams) and potassium (150 mg per 100 grams) also stands out. It also contains phenolic compounds that make it a powerful antioxidant and 83 grams of water per 100 grams, making it one of the most hydrating fruits that exist. As for the raspberry, it is one of Chef Bosquet’s favorite fruits thanks to its flavor, texture and nutritional properties, since its high polyphenol content provides color and aroma to dishes, as well as antioxidants. It is also rich in Vitamin C and fiber (6.7 grams per 100 grams). The recipe also includes agar-agar, one of the most used seaweeds in cooking that is usually used as a thickener in its powder form, replacing thus to gelatin of animal origin. It has a great capacity to absorb liquids and is used as a substitute for animal gelatin. How to prepare healthy treats with fruits Peel and prepare the fruits Peel the mango, chop it and mash it. And then the raspberries are crushed. Both are prepared in a bowl. Add the thickener Add the appropriate amount of agar-agar to both the mango and raspberry bowls. Remember that the appropriate amount is 1 gram per 100 grams of fruit. Cook the crushed mango. Cook the mango until it loses a little water and thickens. Cook the crushed raspberry. Cook the crushed raspberry until it thickens and loses a little water. The molds are filled. The cooked mango mixture is transferred to a baby bottle (culinary accessory) and the molds are filled with the liquid. Likewise, the crushed and cooked raspberry is transferred to the bottle and the skull molds are filled. They cool and unmold. Leave the molds in the freezer for a minimum of four hours and unmold them when they are going to be consumed. They are plated creating a design with the colors. Once unmolded, they are plated alternating colors, orange and pink. Remember that you can use molds of skulls, ghosts, witches, bats or any other motif that you find attractive, if you want to prepare these treats to surprise on Halloween. Or if you prefer, you can use molds with other shapes (stars, bows, dolls, animals…) or decorative motifs of all kinds and this way you can surprise the little ones in the house at any time of the year.
