Mango Panna Cotta

1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
6 tablespoons sugar
2  envelopes gelatin
6 tablespoons cold water

Mango Puree:
1 ripe mango
2 tablespoons sugar
2 oz raspberry sauce (recipe below)
1 oz. toasted almonds
2 springs mint for garnish

Gently heat the cream, milk, vanilla and sugar until well dissolved. Do not boil.

In a bowl,  sprinkle the gelatin over the cold water. Allow to bloom for 5 minutes. Add a bit of the hot cream mixture to the gelatin and stir to melt completely. Stir in the remaining of the cream mixture and blend well. Pour into 2 medium (1 1/4 cup) ramekins and refrigerate for at least 3 hours.

Peel, pit and cut the mango into pieces. In a food processor, purée the mango with the sugar until it is smooth. Set aside.

Once the panna cotta is set, remove from the refrigerator and gently spoon a small hole in the centre. Fill the cavity with mango purée to resemble an egg yolk.

1 cup Agave nectar
zest of 1 Lemon
