Ingredients
For the Panna Cotta
- 2 cup Milk
- 2 cup Coconut Cream
- 2 tsp Unflavored Gelatin
- 1/2 cup Sugar
- 1 tsp Matcha Tea Powder green
For the Strawberry Sauce
- 1/2 cup Strawberries
- 3 tbsp Caster Sugar
For the Garnish
- 4 Strawberries
- Mint Leaves fresh
Instructions
- In a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin over the milk. This allows the gelatin to bloom and soften, ensuring a smooth panna cotta.
- In a saucepan, combine the matcha powder with a splash of milk and whisk until smooth. This prevents clumping when added to the larger mixture.
- Add the coconut cream and sugar to the matcha mixture. Whisk until the sugar dissolves.
- Gently heat the milk and gelatin mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the gelatin is fully dissolved. Do not boil.
- Pour the matcha mixture into the gelatin mixture. Whisk continuously for about 5 minutes, ensuring a homogeneous blend.
- Remove from heat and let the mixture cool slightly. Pour into individual ramekins or molds.
- Refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the panna cotta to set completely.
- To make the strawberry sauce, blend the strawberries and caster sugar until smooth.
- To serve, gently demold the panna cotta. Top with the fresh strawberry sauce, fresh strawberries, and mint leaves.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
Recipe Notes
Good To Know
- For an extra smooth texture, strain the green tea-infused cream mixture through a fine-mesh sieve before pouring it into molds. This will catch any undissolved tea or gelatin lumps.
- For a vegetarian-friendly version, substitute the gelatin with agar-agar powder. Be sure to bring the mixture to a gentle boil after adding agar-agar to ensure it sets properly.
- Chill the serving plates and unmold the panna cotta by briefly dipping the molds in warm water. This helps the dessert release cleanly and maintain its shape.
- Add a few fresh basil leaves or a splash of balsamic vinegar to the strawberry sauce for a more complex flavor profile.
Expert Tips
- Use high-quality green tea for the best flavor infusion. Matcha or loose-leaf sencha are excellent choices.
- Don't over-boil the cream mixture, as this can affect the texture of the panna cotta.
- For a visually appealing presentation, garnish the panna cotta with fresh berries, a sprig of mint, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
Storage Instructions
- Store leftover panna cotta in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
