Step by step recipe

Stage 1 - 5 min.

Soak 1 sheet gelatin in cold water for 5 minutes to soften.

Stage 2 - 7 min.

Pour ½ cup liquid cream into a saucepan on medium heat and bring to the boil.

Stage 3 - 3 min.

Add 1 ½ tablespoon pistachio powder or paste and whisk until thoroughly mixed.

Stage 4 - 30 min.

Next add the softened gelatin (after draining well).

Mix until fully melted, then leave the mixture at room temperature to cool for about 30 minutes.

Stage 5 - 2 hours

Lay a tea towel on a baking sheet and stand the small glasses on this (to stop them sliding about).

Divide the mixture between the glasses, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours.

Stage 6 - 5 min.

Meanwhile, put 1 ½ tablespoon pistachios in a small frying pan on high heat and toast for about 5 minutes (they should only colour slightly).

Stage 7 - 4 min.

Add 1 tablespoon caster sugar to the pan and caramelise the pistachios.

Stage 8 - 5 min.

When they are well caramelised, tip the nuts out onto the worktop (or onto a sheet of cooking parchment if you prefer) to cool.

Stage 9 - 2 min.

When cold, chop coarsely with a knife.

Stage 10 - 6 min.

When you are ready to serve, take the panna cotta out of the fridge and add a little custard to each glass.

Stage 11 - 5 min.

Finish with a few chopped caramelised pistachios and serve.

Remarks

Get pistachios without skin if possible; they look so much nicer when caramelised.

Keeping: Overnight in the fridge.

Source: Home made.

Thank you, appreciate!

Strange problem with the notation, this is suppose to happen only when you rate the same recipe twice in less than 5 minutes... Anyway, don't worry, if you have time try again in a few minutes.

I love your site. Great recipes and tips.

I tried giving you 5 stars on this recipe but a new page loaded and had a message that "Notation impossible...". I have no idea what that is.

Anyway, thank you for all the hard work you put into this website.
