Ingredients

4 Persons

  • 2 tbsp
    warm water
  • 0.75 tsp
    powdered gelatine
  • 125 ml
    semi-skimmed milk
  • 0.5 tsp
    vanilla bean paste
  • 230 g
    0% fat Greek yogurt
  • 20 g
    Whey Protein Vanilla
  • 2 tsp
    runny honey

FOR THE RHUBARB:

  • 150 g
    rhubarb, cut into 3cm lengths
  • 1 tsp
    finely grated orange zest
  • 60 g
    freshly squeezed orange juice
  • 2 tbsp
    runny honey

Preparation

  • 1

    Place the warm water into a small bowl and sprinkle over the gelatine. Set aside for 5 minutes so the gelatine can soften.

  • 2

    Place the milk and vanilla bean paste into a small pot and bring almost to a simmer then remove from the heat, pour in the softened gelatine mixture from the small bowl and stir together. Set aside to cool down to lukewarm.

  • 3

    In a medium bowl, combine the yogurt, protein powder and honey. Whisk until smooth. Gradually whisk in the lukewarm milk mixture until fully combined.

  • 4

    Divide between 4 glasses and place in the fridge to chill until set, around 1-2 hours.

  • 5

    Meanwhile prepare the rhubarb: Place the lengths of rhubarb into a pot with the orange juice, orange zest and honey. Bring to the boil over a low heat and, once boiling, cook for 2 minutes then remove from the heat and cover with a lid. Set aside at room temperature to cool (you get a better colour from it by leaving it to sit for at least 1 hour).

  • 6

    Serve: Top each panna cotta with some of the rhubarb and its juice and serve.
