Coconut Panna Cotta with Mango Lime Coulis

Materials

  • 1 (14oz) can coconut milk
  • 1 Tablespoon agar flakes (not powder)
  • 1 6 inch vanilla bean pod
  • 5 Tablespoons honey, divided
  • 1 cup plain Greek low-fat yogurt
  • Zest and juice of lime
  • 1 ripe mango (8 ounces), peeled and cubed Fresh papaya slices, for garnish

Methods

  1. Lightly and completely oil five ½ cup ramekins with olive oil or coconut oil cooking spray. Whisk coconut milk into a small saucepan; stir in agar flakes. Let rest for 10 minutes.
  2. Split vanilla bean lengthwise and scrape seeds into coconut milk. Add vanilla pod, too. Bring to a full boil (entire surface, not just edges). Reduce heat and simmer, whisking constantly, until agar is mostly dissolved, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and strain into a bowl, using a fine-mesh strainer; press lightly. Discard and solids.
  3. Whisk 4 tablespoons honey into strained coconut milk. Add yogurt and generous pinch of salt; whisk until smooth. Pour into prepared ramekins and chill, covered, at least 1 ½ hours
  4. In a blender, combine remaining 1 tablespoon honey, lime zest and juice, and mango; puree until smooth.
  5. Run a knife around edge of ramekins. Invert onto serving plates. Spoon 2 tablespoons mango-lime coulis (sauce) over each. Garnish with Papaya slices, serve with remaining coulis on side.
