Preparation:
Drain the syrup from the raspberries into a 2-cup glass measure. Set the berries aside. Stir the water into the syrup. Sprinkle the gelatin over the mixture and let stand for 5 minutes to soften.
Microwave on high power for 1 to 1 1/2 minutes, or until the gelatin is dissolved and the mixture is warm; stop and stir every 30 seconds.
Stir in the jelly. Microwave for 30 seconds. Stir until the jelly is completely melted. Set aside to cool slightly.
In a large bowl combine the raspberries, plums, blueberries, oranges, lemon peel and lemon juice.
Pour the gelatin mixture over the fruit. Gently stir until combined. Transfer to a 6- to 8-cup ring mold or other decorative mold. Refrigerate for 4 hours, or until set. To unmold, dip the bottom of the mold for a few seconds in a sink filled with hot water. Run a knife around the edge of the mold, then invert the mold onto a serving plate. Remove the mold. Cut into wedges to serve. |
