Method
- Soak the gelatine leaves in small bowl of cold water for 5 minutes. Meanwhile, place the milk, vanilla pod and seeds and half the cream in a small pan with a strip of orange zest. Gently bring to the boil and simmer for 4-5 minutes until thickened.
- Squeeze the water from the gelatine leaves and beat into the cream. Set aside to cool, then discard the vanilla pod and peel.
- Whip the remaining cream with the icing sugar until thickened, then fold into the cooled cream. Pour into 2 x 120ml dariole moulds and chill for at least 2 hours to set.
- Meanwhile, put the rhubarb in a small pan with the caster sugar and the remaining grated zest and juice from the orange. Gently heat until the rhubarb is tender, then cool.
- Dip the pannacottas in warm water, turn out onto plates and serve with the rhubarb. Vanilla shortbread is great with this.
