Coconut Panna Cotta

There are few desserts that tick both the refreshing and indulgent boxes as well as Panna Cotta does. I love the smooth creaminess and when served with a tangy fruit sauce/compote, it lifts the dessert to new heights.

I’ve been wanting to create a dessert using coconut and pineapple forever and thought this would be the best way to showcase these wonderful, tropical flavours. Caramelising the pineapple adds a lovely depth to the compote which means it won’t just be a sickly sweet fruit sauce. This compote is also pretty amazing on french toast or pancakes for breakfast or served over vanilla ice cream for a simple dessert.

    Hello! I wondered if you’d be so kind as to tell me how many tsps of gelatine to use. Gelatine is available to us in a powdered form. Thanks.

      Dali, generally 1 tablespoon of gelatin powder is the same as 4 gelatin leaves. I’m sure you’d be able to find the leaves if you looked at a good grocery store, though.
