Strawberry Pana Cotta

Ingredients

2 cups cream
2 cups milk
1/2 cup sugar
1 vanilla bean
5 tsp gelatin

Method

1) Heat the heavy cream and sugar in a saucepan or microwave. Once the sugar is dissolved, remove from heat and stir in the scraped vanilla bean. Cover and infuse.
2) Lightly oil eight custard cups with neutral-tasting oil or pan spray.
3) Sprinkle gelatin over the cold water in a medium-sized bowl and let stand for 5 to 10 minutes.
4) Pour the very warm Panna Cotta mixture over the gelatin and stir until gelatin is completely dissolved.
5) Divide the Panna Cotta mixture into the prepared cups, then chill them until firm, which will take atleast two hours but let them stand overnight if possible.
