Method
To Assemble:
To make the tomato jelly place all the ingredients into a blender and puree until smooth.
Hang this mix in a cheesecloth overnight and allow the clear liquid to pass through.
Adjust the liquid to taste with salt, sugar and black pepper.
Weigh out 500ml of the passed tomato juice and soak 3.5 leaves of gelatine.
Warm a small quantity of this liquid and add the soaked gelatine, stir to disperse.
Take off the heat and add the remaining liquid, allow to set in the fridge.
Combine all the ingredients for the shellfish mix together.
Adjust the seasoning to taste and spoon into 4 decorative glasses.
Top with the set tomato jelly.
