Garden Mint Jelly With a Hint of Garlic image

My mint has gone crazy this year so am trying to save some for the winter months, this was a mixture of several recipes plus a few bits of my own and it is DELICIOUS, even DH who hardly ever comments asked me to make more! I put only a hint of chilli in but feel free to add more if that is to your taste. This would be great with a hot curry I think. This Jelly will be a very dark green colour, just from the mint.

I'm not a big fan of mint, but I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed this jelly. The garlic mellows out the mint flavor and makes it really palatable.
