Ingredients
2 x leaves Dr. Oetker Platinum Grade Leaf Gelatine
400ml Asda Arla Farmers Whole Milk
100ml Double Cream
40g Runny Honey
2 x Asda Extra Special Chai Teabags
15g Pistachios, shelled
½ Orange, zest only
Method
1
Soak the gelatine leaves in a bowl of cold water for 10 mins. Meanwhile, add the milk, cream and honey to a medium saucepan and stir. Bring to a gentle simmer, remove from the heat and add the chai teabags. Set aside to infuse for 20 mins.
2
Remove the teabags from the milk mixture. Squeeze the excess water out of the gelatine leaves and add to the milk mixture. Stir well until the gelatine has completely dissolved.
3
Pour the mixture into your chosen serving glasses. Place in the fridge for at least 3 hrs until set.
4
When you are ready to serve, toast the pistachios in a dry frying pan until lightly browned, then chop finely and sprinkle over each panna cotta.
5
To finish, scatter over the orange zest and serve.

Cook’s tip: Swap whole milk for semi-skimmed and use an extra ½ leaf of gelatine for a good set.
