Today I’m sharing this Lime Coconut Jelly with Lychees for those who did not have a chance to get the Living Gourmet Magazine that was published in May 2013. This dessert is very refreshing as lychees pair well with coconut and lime. This recipe has been been tested and tasted by my friends and family before I submitted it for publishing. It has become one of our favourite desserts in my family. You can make this jelly dessert one or two days ahead before serving. Hope you enjoy this dessert as much as we do. Thank you Living Gourmet for giving me an opportunity to feature my recipe.
