Mixed Berries with Panna Cotta

Ingredients:

1/2 cup milk

600ml thickened cream

3/4 cup caster sugar

1 1/2 tsp finely grated orange zest

1 vanilla bean, split lengthways

1 tbs boiling water

2 1/2 tsp powdered gelatine

600g Creative Gourmet frozen Mixed Berries

Method:

To make panna cotta, place milk, cream, sugar and orange zest into a medium saucepan. Using a teaspoon, scrape vanilla bean seeds into pan then add the pod
Stir until sugar dissolves and bring slowly to the boil over medium-low heat. Cook over low heat for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat
Place boiling water in a small heatproof bowl. Sprinkle with gelatine and stir until dissolved. Set aside 3 minutes. Stir gelatine mixture into cream mixture
Strain cream mixture through a fine sieve into a heatproof jug
Evenly pour (using about 1/3 cup mixture per glass) into 10 x 1 cup capacity serving glasses. Cover each glass with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 5 hours or overnight until set
Before serving, defrost the frozen berries in a shallow bowl. To serve, spoon berries over the panna cotta
Sprinkle berries with icing sugar as the red currants in the mix are quite tart and require sweetening
