Christmas Panna Cotta with Mango, Lemon & Coconut

I am just loving the summery combinations of mango and coconut at the moment and we just grabbed a whole lot of lemons from a close by tree so I’m putting them to good use in a lot of my cooking. Enjoy these gorgeous Panna Cotta pots- perfect for your Christmas table this year. Use any jar you recycle, even if they are odd sizes ….all the cuter I say!

PANNA COTTA

PANNA COTTA

600 ml fresh cream

12gr gelatin powder (if you like it more soft just use 8 gr powder)

120g sugar

1 sachet vanillina

Rind of a lemon

Mango topping-

2 ripe mangoes

Juice of a lemon 

2 tablespoons sugar

Melt the sugar and vanilla in the cream over a low heat. Turn off heat and add the gelatine powder. Whisk through. Add the lemon rind. Pour into glasses and allow to cool before putting in fridge to set. 

For the mango topping put everything into the pan and bring to the boil gently until the liquid has evaporated and the mango is cooked. Allow to cool. Top the panna cotta and sprinkle with coconut (or not).
