Panna Cotta

I love Panna cotta. Never realised it was so simple to make.

Ingredients:
250ml double cream
50ml milk
50gms sugar
1 tbsp rum (optional)
2 tsp instant coffee powder (optional)
1/2 vanilla pod- just the seeds (optional)
2 sheets gelatine- soaked in cold water and squeezed dry

Method:
1. In a pan, add all ingredients (except gelatine sheets), stir well and bring it up to a boil
2. Remove from heat and add gelatine soaked sheets and whisk in well (should dissolve easily)
3. Pour in mould (or cups/glasses/anything you can easily turn it out from) and set in fridge for at least 4 hours
4. Once set, partially immerse in warm water/rub the mould between your hands to loosen the panna cotta from the sides of the mould. Turn it on to a plate.

Enjoy with your feet up :)
