Panna Cotta is one of my favourite Italian dessert and it is one of the easiest dessert to make. Mango is my favourite tropical fruit. The marriage of these 2 is like a romantic East meet West story. I love the combination. Mango is juicy and sweet & Panna Cotta is smooth & creamy…
… the taste is simply “Wow”!
Ingredients
500ml heavy cream
2tbsp Sugar
1 vanilla beans
1tsp vegetarian agar agar powder or gelatin
1 mango (dice)
Method
Panna Cotta
Add all the cold ingredients: heavy cream, sugar, agar agar, vanilla bean in a sauce pan
Turn the heat to medium and stir well with a whisk.
When tiny bubbles start forming around the edges, reduce the heat at lowest. Keep cooking and stirring for another 2 minutes
Turn off the heat and fill them into mini glass dessert bowl
Refrigerate for at least 1 hour
Add dice mango to the top of Panna Cotta before serve.
Tips 1: Use vegetarian agar agar powder. It requires less time to thicken compared to the animal gelatin.
Tips 2: Best serve with mango puree. Add 1 mango, 2tsp of lemon juice and 40g powder sugar into a food processor and blend for 1 minute to create a smooth puree.
