This is our classy Coconut & Cardamom Panna Cotta with a mango puree. The vanilla, coconut and cardamom flavours in this delicious panna cotta marry together beautifully with a drizzle of mango puree. A truly delightful light dessert that will wow your friends and family.
Lightly crush 12 cardamom pods with the flat side of a large knife to split the seeds. Gently scrape out the seeds and discard the pods.
Step 2:
Using a pestle and mortar crush up the seeds until powdery.
Step 3:
Soak the gelatine leaves in cold water for 5 minutes.
Step 4:
Add the crushed seeds with cream, sugar, coconut milk, milk and vanilla bean paste to a large saucepan, whisking gently to avoid any lumps.
Step 5:
Heat the cream to a simmer then remove from the hob.
Step 6:
Squeeze any remaining water from the gelatine leaves and add to the mix. Allow to dissolve.
Step 7:
Once the gelatine is fully dissolved, pour the mixture into 4 ramekins.
Step 8:
Leave to cool, then chill for 3-4 hours or until set.
Step 9:
To prepare the mango puree slice up the flesh of two mangos.
Step 10:
Keep aside a few chunks for added texture when serving. Blend the remaining mango to make a smooth puree. Serve alongside the panna cotta or drizzled on top.
