Ingredients
3 sheets leaf gelatine
450ml double cream
200ml whole milk
100g white caster sugar
1 vanilla pod
1 packet Strawberry Jelly
For the strawberries
400g strawberry, hulled and halved, or quartered if very large
1½ tsp cornflour
50g white caster sugar
Method
For the panna cotta, put the gelatine leaves in a small bowl of cold water to soften – this will take about 5 mins.
Meanwhile, pour the cream, milk and sugar into a pan, split the vanilla pod, scrape out the seeds and add, along with the pod, to the cream mixture. Heat gently until hot, but not bubbling. Remove the gelatine leaves from the water, squeeze out any excess liquid then add, one at a time, to the hot cream. Stir until dissolved. Leave to stand for 20-30 mins until cooled – the vanilla pods should be suspended in the liquid by this point. Strain the mixture through a sieve into 6 serving glasses, then chill for at least 3 hrs. I put it into a Pyrex dish.
I prepared a box of strawberry jelly as per instructions on the packet and kept to chill in a Pyrex dish and then poured the Panna Cotta mix on top and let it set.
Toss the strawberries with the cornflour and sugar in a saucepan. Place over a medium heat and cook for 4-5 mins, until the released juices thicken and the strawberries soften. Set aside to cool. Once completely cooled, top the set panna cottas with the strawberry mixture. Chill until ready to serve.
