How to make

  1. Soak gelatine leaves in cold water for 5–10 minutes until soft.
  2. In a saucepan, gently heat the cream, milk, sugar, and lemon zest. Stir until the sugar dissolves - don’t let it boil.
  3. Remove from heat.
  4. Squeeze excess water from the gelatine and stir it in until fully dissolved.
  5. Add vanilla extract and elderberry cordial.
  6. Strain the mixture into a jug (removes zest and ensures smoothness).
  7. Pour into ramekins or glasses.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until set.
  9. To make the topping, lightly mash the summer fruit of your choice with icing sugar and lemon juice for a fresh, slightly saucy texture.
  10. Spoon the fruit mix over the set panna cotta just before serving.
