Plum and almond panna cotta
Put 1 sheet gelatin in cold water to soften.

Stage 2 - 2 min.
Plum and almond panna cotta
Put into a saucepan: 75 g liquid cream, 75 g almond milk, 13 g caster sugar and 5 g Vanilla sugar.

Stage 3 - 5 min.
Plum and almond panna cotta
Put on low heat and heat to 140°F (60°C) maximum – do not let it boil.

Stage 4 - 2 min.

Stage 8 - 5 min.
Plum and almond panna cotta
Top the panna cotta with the stewed plums.

If you like, decorate each dish with a small sprig of mint just before serving.
Remarks
This recipe also works well with apricots and almonds. The general idea is to balance the soft sweetness of the almonds with a slightly tart fruit.

You can also make the panna cotta without cream, just using more almond milk instead, but do note that the texture will be quite different and not as, well, creamy.
Keeping
A day or two in the fridge, covered with plastic film.
Source
Home made.
