  • Boil the mixture on medium to low flame until the sugar dissolves completely.
  • Add the agar-agar mixture and stir well until it is completely dissolved.
  • Bring the entire mixture to boil on low flame for 2-3 minutes until it thickens.
  • Remove the saucepan from the heat and strain it into a jug using a strainer.
  • Pour it into the prepared cups and keep in the refrigerator for 1-2hrs or until it is set.
  • When Panna cotta is set, unmould it into a plate and serve it by garnishing with mint and a strawberry and enjoy this delicious and creamy dessert.

Notes

  • While adding the agar-agar to the water, stir it vigorously until it is completely dissolved before switching on the heat.
  • Don’t add the agar-agar powder directly in hot water otherwise, it will clump up.
  • If the panna cotta is sticking to your cup during unmould, place the cup in luke-warm water for a few seconds and tap it gently on the back of the cup with hand.
