Abbamele Panna Cotta

Method

  • Place the honey with 2 strips each of lemon and orange rind in a pot. Bring to the boil, turn the heat down and simmer very gently for 30 mins. Then strain into a bowl and add 3 tspn each orange and lemon juice. Set aside to cool.
  • Soak the gelatine sheets in cold water for 2 mins and then squeeze them dry.
  • To make the Panna Cotta, put the cream, milk and sugar into a pot and gently bring to the bowl. Turn the heat down, add the gelatine and briefly cook until dissolved, whisking regularly.
  • Lightly spray 8 x 125 ml moulds with oil, spoon a tablespoon of the honey mixture into each and then fill with the Panna Cotta. Allow to cool and refrigerate for at least 3-4 hours (up to 24 hours).
  • Invert onto individual plates and serve with a little extra cream spooned over the top, if you like.
