Ingredients
  

For the crust:

  • 16 biscuits I have used Parle-G (100g)
  • ¼ cup + 2 tsp melted butter
  • More butter to grease the pan/tin

For the filling:

  • ½ cup chhena or fresh paneer
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • 4-6 drops lemon essence optional

For the fruit layer:

  • cup grapes chopped
  • cup apple chopped
  • cup orange chopped
  • cup pomegranate arils

For the jelly:

  • 1 cup water
  • 3 tbsp sugar
  • ¾ tsp agar-agar powder
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 8-10 drops lemon essence optional

Instructions
 

To make the crust:

  • Add the biscuits to a grinder jar. Grind the biscuits into fine crumbs.
  • Add melted butter. Mix thoroughly until the mixture resembles wet sand.
  • Grease the tart pan with butter. Add the crumb mixture, spread it out and press down very firmly.
  • Place the pan in the freezer for 30 minutes.

To make the filling:

  • In a grinder jar, add chhena, sugar and lemon essence. Grind until smooth.
  • Take the tart pan out of the freezer. Pour the chhena mixture. Spread it out. Make sure the top is smooth.
  • Freeze for 15 minutes. Then take it out.

To make the fruit layer:

  • Using a knife, make some marks over the chhena. And divide the tart into 8 equal sections. We will fill those sections with 4 kinds of chopped fruits.
  • Fill one section with grape slices. Then fill the opposite section with grape slices.
  • Add the chopped apples in the next section. Then fill the opposite section with apples.
  • Fill the next section with chopped orange. Again fill the opposite section with oranges.
  • Then fill the next section with pomegranate arils and fill the opposite section with pomegranates.
  • Keep the pan in the refrigerator for a few minutes.

To make the jelly:

  • Take a saucepan. Add water, sugar, agar-agar powder, honey and lemon essence. Mix well.
  • Then heat the saucepan over a low flame and bring the liquid to a boil while stirring continuously.
  • After that let it simmer for a few minutes. Constantly stir the liquid, otherwise, agar-agar will stick to the bottom of the pan.
  • Turn the flame off. Allow the liquid to cool down a little. As it cools down, the liquid will thicken.
  • Once the liquid becomes slightly thick (just like honey), pour the mixture over the fruits.
  • Tip: As soon as the liquid comes in contact with the chilled fruits, it will solidify. So you have to be very quick while pouring the liquid.
  • Refrigerate for 1-2 hours.
  • Take it out and wrap the pan with a hot kitchen towel. Allow it to sit for a few seconds.
  • After that carefully de-mould the tart.
  • Using a sharp knife, cut the tart and carefully place the slice over the serving plate.
  • No-bake fruit jelly tart is ready to serve!

Notes

If you don’t want to use lemon essence, then substitute it with lemon juice.
