Mango Panna Cotta with Coconut Crumble
AuthorMeg's KitchenPanna Cotta is a creamy, melt in your mouth Italian dessert which is beautiful and jiggly and has a very smooth mouth feel. Panna Cotta literally translates to ‘cooked cream’. The cream /+ milk mixture is cooked till slightly warm and then set using gelatine. The beauty of this dessert is it’s ease of making and versatility. There are soooo many gorgeous flvaour combinations once can make. That’s why, instead of making a simple panna cotta, I decided to share a Mango Panna Cotta made with coconut milk and served with a crunchy coconut crumble.
Ingredients for the Panna Cotta
½ cup Coconut Milk
¼ cup Heavy Cream
1 ½ tbsp Sugar
¼ cup Mango Puree
1 tsp Gelatine Powder or Agar Agar Powder
1 tbsp Water
Ingredients for the Coconut Crumble
10 g Flour
25 g Cold Butter
25 g Desiccated Coconut
25 g Castor/ Powdered Sugar

1-2 minutes. - Bring the pan off heat, add mango puree and combine well.
