I always wanted to try a Panna Cotta made of Coconut milk only, no cream or milk is needed. Also I used Agar-Agar instead of gelatine, so the recipe should be suitable for vegans. I tried it yesterday and it worked! My guests (and myself) liked it! It is very easy to prepare and you can use other fruits to garnish instead of the strawberries (I will try mango next time). The dessert makes a real good finish to a spicy Thai dinner! Ingredients:
1 (400 ml) can coconut milk (not sweetened) |
50 g palm sugar or 2 -3 tablespoons brown sugar |
1 tablespoon dried shredded coconut |
1 vanilla bean |
1 teaspoon agar-agar |
1 fresh lime, juice of |
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, finely chopped |
1 tablespoon brown sugar |
300 g strawberries |
Directions:
1. Slice the vanilla bean lengthwise in 2 halfs.
2. In a medium sauce pan, bring to boil the coconut milk, add vanilla bean and the palm sugar.
3. Add the shredded coconut and on low heat stir or mix for 2 minutes.
4. Add the Agar-Agar and bring to boil again, stirring for another minute.
5. Take out the vanilla bean.
6. Rinse small porcelain bowls (or chinese tea cups) with cold water and fill in the coconut panna cotta.
7. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
8. For the Ginger-Lime-Strawberries, wash and slice the strawberries into small pieces.
9. In a bowl, mix the lime juice, the ginger and the brown sugar.
10. Add the strawberries and toss to coat.
11. To serve, invert the panna cotta onto small plates and garnish with the ginger-lime strawberries.
