Yoghurt Panna Cotta with Strawberry Sauce

Yoghurt Panna Cotta with Strawberry Sauce

A fresh and delicate dessert, the perfect finale after a big dinner. Always gotta end with something sweet! The addition of the yoghurt and the cream makes for a very fresh dessert. A light but still very satisfying dessert.


What is panna cotta?

Panna Cotta is a no-bake dessert and means ‘cooked cream’, literally translated from Italian. It is a very classic Italian dessert and was probably one of the first I learned how to cook at Hotelschool! Gosh, Italy even knows how to do dessert right. Panna Cotta has a very creamy texture with a good wiggle to it. There are so many variations you can make on it too, think about coffee, caramel, chocolate, fruit, yoghurt, chai or a classic vanilla flavour. We love a versatile dessert 🤤


How to get the Panna Cotta out of its mould

Okay, this is probably the ‘hardest’ part about making this Panna Cotta, getting it out of its mould. But… with this one tip, you’ll get it out in no time. To get it out of its mould without breaking, carefully run a knife around the edges of the panna cotta. Try not to get any water on the panna cotta itself, only on the outside of the mould. Then dip the mould in some hot water, which will slightly melt the outside of the panna cotta. Place the plate you will serve it on on top of your mould and turn it upside down in a confident motion and you should hear the panna cotta falling on the plate. 


How do I keep Panna Cotta fresh?

You can keep your Panna Cotta stored in the fridge for at 3-4 days, just keep it sealed with plastic wrap. 

Enjoy loves!

Ingredients

Yoghurt panna cotta

  • 4 gelatine leaves
  • 50ml lemon juice
  • 350ml heavy cream
  • 110gr sugar
  • 500gr full-fat yoghurt
  • 1tbsp vanilla bean paste or a vanilla pod

Strawberry sauce

  • 250gr fresh or frozen strawberries
  • 1tbsp lemon juice
  • 1tsp vanilla
  • 3tbsp sugar

Instructions

Panna Cotta

  1. Place your gelatine sheets in cold water
  2. In a saucepan over medium-low heat, heat your sugar, cream, vanilla and lemon juice until the sugar has fully dissolved
  3. Once the sugar is dissolved, squeeze out any excess water from the gelatine leaves and add them to your hot cream. Stir until the gelatine is completely dissolved and take off the heat
  4. Add the mixture to your full-fat yoghurt and stir to combine. Pour into your mould or a fancy glass and leave in the fridge to set for at least 4 hours or overnight

Strawberry Sauce

  1. Place all your ingredients in a saucepan over medium heat. Gently bring it to a boil while constantly stirring. The strawberries will start to break down and this is where you can control the chunkiness of your sauce
  2. Let it simmer for about 10-15 minutes, depending on how thick you like your sauce
  3. Take it off the heat and let it cool completely. The sauce will stay fresh in an airtight container in the fridge for 3 to 4 days

Serving

  1. Turn the Panna Cotta’s out on a plate and top with your strawberry sauce. Add a little mint leave for decoration and dig in!
