Panna Cotta

This is an Italinan dessert similar to jelly, but this one uses double cream.   There are many flavours that one can add to the double cream, I like mine just with double cream and topped with creme anglaise.

Ingredients :
1 liter double cream
100 gm sugar
2 tsp vanilla extract
4 1/2 tsp gelatin powder
9 cl cold water
Creme Anglaise

In a bowl, add the cold water into the gelatin powder and let it stand for at least 5 minutes.  In the meantime, melt the sugar in the double cream, till slow boil.  Remove from fire and add into the gelatin, add the vanilla extract and stir till the gelatine dissolves.  Then I fill up 8 ice cream cups, you can use any teacups or ramekins.  Leave to chill for about 4 hours, before serving topped up with Creme Anglaise.
