This is a quick mango panna cotta recipe. It is easy to make and can be prepared in advance and stored in the fridge to be enjoyed in your happy events.
Ingredients
- 500 ml fresh heavy cream
- 3 tbsp brown sugar
- 3 leaves gelatine (or 2g of agar agar)
- 1 vanilla pod (Or vanilla extract)
- 2 medium mangos
- 2 teaspoons Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon corn starch
- Fresh mint leaves for decoration
Instructions
Prepare the panna cotta
- Soak the gelatine leaves in a bowl of cold water and set aside for 10 minutes. Note: In case you are using the agar agar powder, mix it well with 3 tablespoons of the cream, then add it to the mixture before heating it.
- In a large pan, pour the cream, sugar, and vanilla. If you are using a vanilla pod, open it from one side using a knife and try to extract all its seeds. Then add both the seeds and the pod to the cream.
- Gently heat the mixture, keep whisking well to dissolve sugar.
- Once the mix is boiling, turn off the heat. Take the softened gelatine leaves and squeeze off the water. Then add the gelatine and stir with the whisk into the hot cream.
- Remove the vanilla pod, leave until the mixture becomes warm, then carefully put the pannacotta in some ramekins, glasses or jam jars based on your preferences. Cover the ramekins or the glasses with plastic wrap and place in the fridge for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Prepare the mango gelee
- Peel the mango and blend it until you get a very smooth puree.
- Add the mango puree to a small saucepan, add sugar or any sweetener of choice, add the corn starch and mix well to not have bubbles.
- Place the saucepan over medium heat while whisking until the mixture boils. Then remove it from heat.
