To make the panna cotta
- Use a knife to split the vanilla pod lengthways.
- Use a teaspoon to scrape out the vanilla seeds.
- Put the gelatine leaves in a bowl of cold water. They will take about 5 minutes to soften.
- Whilst the leaves are softening, pour the cream and milk into a pad and add the sugar.
- Heat the mixture until its is hot, but not boiling.
- Remove the gelatine leaves, one at a time, from the bowl of water, and remove any excess liquid by squeezing them with your hands.
- Add the leaves to the creamy liquid and stir until the gelatine has dissolved.
- Set aside to cool.
- Once the creamy mixture is cool, use a sieve to share the liquid between 4-6 dessert glasses or ramekins.
- Chill in the fridge for at least 3 hours.
To make the raspberry topping
- Place the raspberries, sugar and cornflour in a pan. Stir to combine.
- Cook over a medium heat, until the raspberries release some juices and soften.
- Set aside to cool.
To assemble the panna cotta
- Once the panna cottas have set and the raspberry topping has cooled, spoon the raspberry mixture on top of the panna cotta.
- Return to the fridge until you are ready to serve them.
