Apricot leather from dried apricots
Description
The recipe won't take much time. Wash the dried apricots thoroughly. Then pour them into a saucepan and cover with water. Cook the apricots until soft. If you want the fruit to be completely unnoticeable in your jelly, cut the apricots into small pieces before cooking. However, I prefer my jelly so that the dried fruit looks as if frozen in time, and by the way, such jelly is just as easy to cut! The apricots are now soft. Add sugar and cook until thickened. As the jelly thickens, the water will evaporate. Stir constantly to prevent burning. Pour the thick, still very hot apricot jelly into a baking tray or flat molds. You can dry the jelly slightly in the oven for 20–30 minutes, then leave it to set on the kitchen counter. Once cooled, place it in the refrigerator to set faster. Cut the ready apricot jelly into pieces and roll them in powdered sugar. Serve chilled.
