Ingredients
Vanilla Panna Cotta
- 250 ml double cream
- 250 ml whole milk
- 25 g caster sugar
- 1 vanilla pod
- 3 sheets gelatin
Orange Jelly
- 300 ml fresh orange juice
- 2 sheets gelatin
Instructions
Vanilla Panna Cotta
- Pour the double cream and milk into a small saucepan and stir in the sugar. Split the vanilla pod in half and scrape out the seeds. Add both the seeds and the vanilla pod to the saucepan.
- Place the 3 gelatin sheets for the panna cotta into a bowl and cover with cold water. Set aside for 5 minutes to allow the sheets to soften.
- Meanwhile place the saucepan over a medium heat and bring to a simmer, ensuring the sugar is dissolved. Remove the vanilla pod.
- Squeeze any excess water from the gelatin sheets and place them into the hot milk. Whisk to combine and thoroughly melt the gelatin.
- Pour the milk mixture through a fine sieve into a measuring jug. This will remove any loose pieces of vanilla pod left in the milk and also make the liquid easier to pour.
- Pour the milk mixture evenly between 8 small serving glasses. Allow to cool then cover and set aside in the fridge for at least two hours to set.
Orange Jelly
- Heat the orange juice up in a saucepan.
- Place the 2 gelatin sheets for the orange jelly into a bowl and cover with cold water. Set aside for 5 minutes to allow the sheets to soften.
- Once the gelatin is soft place it in the warm orange juice and whisk to combine. Again pour the liquid through a fine sieve into a measuring jug. Allow to cool for 10 minutes.
- Remove the panna cotta from the fridge and gently pour over the orange jelly, ensuring an even amount in each glass. Cover the glasses and place back in the fridge for a further 2 hours to allow the jelly to set.
- When ready to serve remove the panna cotta from the fridge and serve immediately.
Notes
Please read the instructions on the pack of gelatin sheet before commencing this recipe. Gelatin sheets do vary in size between producers. The product instructions will give clear guidance on how much sheets to use for this amount of liquid.
These desserts can be made well ahead of time, even the day before you require them. They will happily keep overnight in the fridge. Panna cotta also freezes really well.
These panna cottas have been served in small glasses, intended for serving alongside other small sweet treats at a drinks party or buffet style evening. However if serving as a dinner dessert, this mixture will easily make 4 individual desserts.
