Vanilla Chocolate Panna Cotta with Mango Coulis(Gelatin Free)

Dear Friends!!!

After a visit to an Italian Restaurant I was so impressed with desserts and want to try it.Finally I got to make Panna Cotta. Panna Cotta is purely originated from Piedmont,Italy! It is termed as "Cooked Cream" as an Italian dessert!

I used an Agar Agar as replaced by gelatin and it tasted lovely.It is so simple and tasted heavenly. It can be served along with berries or caramel sauce or chocolate sauce or fruit coulis

Here I made Mango Vanilla and chocolate panna cotta with mango coulis
