Ingredients

  • 300ml/10fl oz double cream
  • 70g/2½oz caster sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2½ sheets gelatine
  • 300ml/10fl oz buttermilk
  • 90g/3¼oz blueberries
  • 100g/3½oz caster sugar
  • 1 star anise
  • 100g/3½oz blueberries

Instructions

  • Warm the cream, sugar and vanilla in a pan until the sugar has dissolved and the cream just comes to the boil.
  • Remove the pan from the heat. Squeeze the gelatine to remove any excess water. Add it to the pan and stir until dissolved. Add the buttermilk and mix well.
  • Divide the blueberries between five ramekins. Pour over the cream mixture to fill the moulds.
  • Place in the fridge to set - this will take at least four hours, or leave overnight.
  • For the blueberry sauce, put the sugar, 50ml/2fl oz of water and star anise into a pan. Bring to the boil so that the sugar dissolves and the syrup thickens slightly but doesn’t change colour.
  • Remove from the heat and add the blueberries. Leave to cool and the syrup will turn a deep red colour and the blueberries will soften.
  • To serve, run a knife around the panna cotta to loosen it. Tip out onto serving plates and pour over a little of the blueberry sauce.
