Passion Fruit Panna Cotta


When it comes to eating fruits, I am very fussy!!! There are few fruits which I really don't like and would never ever taste no matter how healthy or nutritious they are!! One among such fruits, is the passion fruit..... The seeds of passion fruit are never appealing to my eyes and so I just don't like it..... Last week when JJ went to Kerala, he got some passion fruits from home and was wondering what to do with it as I didn't want to waste it too!!! I remember seeing few passion fruit recipes on Swapna's Cuisine.... And, I went ahead with the Passion Fruit Panna Cotta without giving a second thought as we are panna cotta lovers.


Ingredients:
Recipe Source: Swapna's Cuisine

For the Passion Fruit Jelly

Water - 2 tbsp
Gelatin - 1 or 1/2 tbsp
Passion fruit - 4 or 1/4 cup strained pulp
Caster sugar - 1/2 cup + 1 tbsp
Water - 1 1/4 cups


For the Panna Cotta

Water - 2 tbsps
Gelatin powder - 2 tsp or 1 tsp
Cream - 2 cups
Icing sugar - 1/3 cup, sifted
Vanilla essence - 1 tsp


Method:

To make the jelly
  • Take water in a small bowl and add gelatin. Keep aside for 5 mins or until the gelatin absorbs the water.
  • Strain the passion fruit pulp through a fine sieve and have approx 1/4 cup juice.
  • Place the juice, caster sugar and water in a saucepan over medium heat and stir until the sugar has dissolved. Bring to the boil and simmer for 3 mins.
  • Add the gelatin mixture and cook, stirring for 1-2 mins to dissolve the gelatin.
  • Pass the mixture through a fine sieve and divide among glasses or molds equally.
  • Refrigerate until set.

To make the Panna Cotta
  • Take water in a small bowl and add gelatin. Keep aside for 5 mins or until the gelatin absorbs the water.
  • Place the cream in a saucepan over medium heat with the sugar and vanilla essence.
  • Stir occasionally, allowing the cream to come to a boil.
  • Add the gelatin mixture and cook, stirring for a minute or just until the gelatin is dissolved.
  • Pass the mixture through a fine sieve and allow it to cool to room temperature before pouring over the firm passion fruit jelly.
  • Refrigerate until set
  • Serve chilled with fruits or any toppings of your choice.

Just like the previous one, this panna cotta too was devoured within a day....*smiles*

Caramel Cake

This time, I am deeply smitten with the vacation bug, and I still haven't recovered from it yet.

Meanwhile, many special days like the Mother's day and Father's Day have come and gone, but I was never in a mood to at least make an effort to bake something for those special days.....Anyways, let me hope this Caramel Cake would compensate for all those lazy bygone days.....
