Panna Cotta

This is an easy dessert to make and looks great this recipe should make 6, it will last up to 4 days in the fridge depending on the freshness of the cream and milk used of course.

1 Vanilla Pod
400ml Light Cream
(or you could use 300ml light cream, 100ml whole milk)
100g Castor Sugar
2 Gelatine Leaves

Method:


  1. Line 6 moulds with cling film
  2. Soak the gelatine leaves in COLD water (until soft)
  3. Pour the cream into a pot with the vanilla pod and the castor sugar
  4. Bring to the boil
  5. Remove the pan from the heat, remove the vanilla pod
  6. Squeeze off the excess water from the gelatine
  7. Add the gelatine to the cream mix
  8. Strain and put into the cling moulds 
  9. Leave to set in the fridge for 2-4 hours
  10. You could serve with some fresh berries and some lemon shortbread, even some coulis alongside
