Katya - We make a similar dish and cook pasta separately for about a minute less than it needs and then let the pasta cook in the peas/bacon for a minute or so to absorb some of the flavour.  We serve it with grated parmesan and it makes a nice supper dish so I think it's OK to have this in the mains section. This is my OH's speciality and he hasn't cooked it in the TMX yet - maybe I'll print off this recipe so he can try.

Tips/Hints:I pour mine in a cappuccino cups or a tall glasses
Use more gelatin if you are going to turn it out on to a plate
You can add lemon or orange peel in step 1

Suitable for freezing

This recipe it so versatile

You can add cocoa + orange essences= jaffa
White chocolate
Kahlua
Espresso coffee
Anything that takes your fancy

Adjust the sugar to taste. Example if you add white chocolate you only need 3/4 cup of sugar
My personal favourite is I add a peeled and chopped orange or lemon in the cream mix. on the stove top I would leave to simmer for ½ hour and leave it to infuse over night if possible, or a few hours in the fridge I squash the orange down with a potato masher while still hot

You must strain into a jug before you pour into your cup, glass or moulds.

rubyslippers - I had some cream I wanted to use up last week, so I made this one. I have never had/made panna cotta before.  From what I have heard the consistency was perfect.  It was a little too sweet for me (it did end up with a little extra sugar in though as I was off with the fairies when I weighed it in  Cheesy), so next time I'll try it with less.

Herbal - This is a fabulous recipe - thanks!  Have made it several times now and it has worked without fail every single time.  I've added half a teaspoon more gelatine and they have turned out perfectly after putting them in hot water for about 20 seconds.  I've only done vanilla using vanilla bean paste and it's been a hit every time!

Lemongrass - For those of you who can't get hold of gelatin powder, you can replace the 3 tsp of powdered gelatin with 6 leaves. Just soften them in cold water for 10 minutes. Keep in mind that gelatin leaves should not be brought to a boil, so make sure you bring down your temperature to 80° before you add the leaves to the bowl.
I didn't have enough cream so I used 330ml cream and 300ml milk. It was my first attempt at homemade panna cotta it worked perfectly.  Thank you very very much Fundj.

PS. I topped it with Raspberry coulis. Unfortunately I don't have the Australian EDC so I improvised :
Blitz 200g frozen raspberries, add lemon juice and sugar (80g was too much)
Cook 10mn / 80° / speed 3
It was good but felt a bit gritty on the teeth because of the raspberry seeds.

MEP - I made this on the weekend using thickened cream (the only type available at the shops at the time). While it was delicious to taste, there was two separate layers - the base layer of milk and the top 3/4 layer of a more creamy consistency. Is this because I used the thickened cream or was it because I put the panna cottas into the fridge straight away without letting it cool down on the bench first? Any comments/advice/thoughts would be most welcomed.
Thanks for sharing a fantastically easy recipe.

JulieO - I use the little Nestle plastic moulds which I brush with oil before filling, I find these so easy to use.  Being flexible you only have to gently squeeze the plastic mould which then loosens the filling and they just plop out onto a plate.

DJ - Made a mango version today with things from fridge.

300ml single cream
100 ml double cream
Less than 1/2 cup sugar
I fresh mango puréed.
1 heaped teaspoon vanilla paste.

I cooked these together but got worried when it boiled madly so I stopped and turned the heat off.
Added the milk and soaked gelatine and 200 ml fat free yoghurt.
Blended well, it almost split so poured into 7 ramekins and chilled.
Verdict very good and set well not split at all.
DD and I think 2 mangoes would have been better but the men in the house are not fruity people and loved it. So maybe a mango coulis for those of us that want a bit more fruit.
Will make again, thanks very much.

Suzanne - made this tonight and have it in the fridge for tomorrow it sure tasted delicious so I hope it works, it's my first attempt.
