- Strain the chestnut mixture to remove any excess flour. Place the chestnut mixture into a boiling water. Stir well for a few times to prevent them from sticking. Cook on medium heat for 3 minutes or until all the chestnuts float to the top. Remove from hot water and place into icy water bowl to cool. Then remove from icy water and place into a clean bowl. Repeat with the green one. Add 1 tsp. sugar into the red one and another 1 tsp. sugar into the green one. Mix well.
Note: To save time, while waiting the jelly cool down and set, we will make other steps.

Thank you, Ritu.
I can’t wait to make this, just have to source the right ingredients. I miss this so much and can’t wait for another Vietnam adventure.
Thank you for stopping by, Hollie!
