MANGO AND STRAWBERRY VEG JELLY

Hello everyone 

Today I am here with kids favorite jelly recipe. 
My kids are too fond of jellies and can have any time. They always insist to buy , so I thought why not to give it a try at home also. I always try to avoid non veg addition to my daily cooking so tried my hands on agar agar for this recipe. As summer is knocking and lovely aromatic mangoes are in season and also had some strawberry syrup in hand so made these irresistible mango and strawberry veg jellies.
This is so easy and quick recipe that you all will definitely going to love it and surely will try also.
