这是我2012年最后一个贴子了,这几天还是很忙碌的在工作,然后就要急急的收拾行李和老公度假去。 这是上个礼拜我们家温馨的圣诞晚餐。之前也提及和家婆商讨了今年一切从简,所以大家各自准备一道菜肴,那么我就自然比较轻松,不必一人独苦!!
Starter: Salmon Roulade(家婆负责)
Side: Potato Salad (姑姑负责)
Dessert: Cherry Cheesecake (我负责)
Orange Panna Cotta with Mango Gelée. (我负责)
当天的晚餐虽然简单,但是都合大家口味,尤其喜欢家婆Salmon Roulade。 食谱她说以后才补上。吃着吃着,姑姑问起怎么没拍主菜和她的salad,喔,对hor。。但是食物已经一半在肚子里了啦,抱歉抱歉。呵呵。。。!那样也好,不用老是要客人等我拍照才可以动刀叉对吧!
这褶贴子整理得有点仓促,希望见谅了。在这里还是要谢谢大家一年来支持Helena‘Kitchen。 也祝大家圣诞和新年快乐!

Ingredients: (Make 5-6)
For Orange Panna Cotta

150g castor sugar
(I used 110g)

2 medium mangoes (make 200g mango purée)
100g diced mango
30g caster sugar
30g caster sugar
4g gelatine powder
Method:
1. Pour milk into a small bowl, stir in gelatin and set aside.
2. Place cream, sugar, zest and vanilla in a saucepan. Slowly bring to boil, stirring until sugar dissolves. Remove from heat, add gelatin mixture and stir until gelatin dissolves.
3. Set aside to cool for 15 mins. Strain mixture and pour into prepared moulds. To make the “angle” effect, arrange the moulds in an egg tray and tilt a little.
4. Refrigerate for an hour until panna cotta slightly set. In the mean time prepare for mango gelée.
5. Peel the mangoes and cut away the flesh from the seed. Puree them finely.
6. Add sugar to half of the mango puree in a saucepan and warm over low heat until sugar dissolve. Remove the saucepan from the stove and stir in gelatin until gelatin dissolves. Add the remaining mango puree and stir well. Add in the diced mango and let the gelée cool to the room temperature and pour over set panna cotta. Chill to set at least 4 hours.
