Agar-agar is a plant-based gelling agent, while cornstarch is a more economical thickener.

Cut the tops off 5 strawberries and wash them thoroughly.

Blend the strawberries in a blender to make a puree without adding water.

Strain the strawberry puree using a strainer to separate the pulp from the seeds.

Add 1/2 cup sugar to the strained puree and mix well.

Add 2 tablespoons of cornflour (cornstarch) to the mixture and mix thoroughly to avoid lumps.

Add 1/2 cup water to the mixture and mix again before heating.

Place the mixture on the stove and turn on the heat, stirring continuously as it heats up.

Cook for about 4 to 5 minutes until the mixture becomes translucent, then turn off the heat.

Transfer the mixture into a pre-prepared pan without greasing it and spread it evenly.

Let it set for at least 2-3 hours until firm.

Once set, cut the jelly into desired shapes, such as squares or rectangles.

Optionally, coat the pieces with desiccated coconut or sugar before serving.
