It was a call from Foodhall India a couple of weeks ago, inviting me to hold a workshop in their beautiful store. And the theme was Mango Mania! Mango Coconut Panna Cotta is what I zeroed in on. It's a no-fuss, simple recipe. There is no baking, rolling, kneading, nothing really! And the result is a superb-looking, insanely creamy, delicious, and refreshing summer dessert.

Panna Cotta is an Italian dessert, that means" cooked cream". Think of creamy jelly, flavored with the King of all fruits - mangoes! It's usually served on little plates, unmoulded from its cup. I prefer to serve in pretty glass dishes, garnished with fruits, and edible flowers.

I wanted to make a vegan mango panna cotta, so I used coconut milk and agar-agar, also known as China Grass. Derived from red algae, agar is a common alternative to gelatin for vegetarians and vegans. It doesn't melt at warm temperatures unlike gelatin and doesn't require refrigeration for the setting. However, for this recipe, I highly recommend refrigeration!

Now to everyone's favorite- Mangoes!  They are one of the most delightful and healthful elements of the Ayurvedic diet. This fruit is rich in vitamins such as vitamin A, vitamin B6, vitamin C, and vitamin E. It thus has antioxidant properties, is good for vision; also helps the body in developing good resistance power, and is good for the heart. It is rich in pre-biotic dietary fiber that aids in digestion. All the reasons to dig into this sweet juicy fruit!

NOTE:

I used Pairi mangoes for this mango panna cotta recipe. They are very sweet, with a tinge of sour, and have a wonderful aroma and flavor. It's best to use them quickly as they don't keep very well.

I hope this sublime Mango Coconut Panna Cotta makes it to your dessert table this summer! It's a great make-ahead dessert that's sure to please everyone!

Half the joy of cooking is sharing it with others. Thatโ€™s why Iโ€™m always eager to hear from you. So go right ahead & drop a comment or reach out on Instagram, Pinterest, YouTube, or Facebook. I hope you love this mango coconut panna cotta as much as we do!

      Hi Natasha, cornstarch will give it a more custard-like texture. Not a set jelly-like texture that gelatin or agar-agar will give. Yes, I think canned mango chunks, pureed, will work. ๐Ÿ™‚
