Strawberry Panna Cotta Tart With Chocolate Ganache Recipe

Step 1: To begin making Strawberry Panna Cotta Tart With Chocolate Ganache Recipe, first preheat your oven at 180°C to make the tart shell

Step 2: In a large mixing bowl, combine melted butter, powdered sugar and salt

Step 3: Mix well until all ingredients are combined

Step 4: Sift all purpose flour into the butter and sugar mix until the mixture looks like soft crumbly dough

Step 5: Using your palm and fingers, spread this dough evenly on the bottom and the sides of a tart pan with a removable base

Step 6: Use a tart shell with removable bottom as it is easy to remove the whole tart from it and hence making it easy to cut and serve

Step 7: Cover the tart shell with a cling film and refrigerate for 20 minutes

Step 8: Once done, prick the shell all over with a fork; this is done so that the tart shell does not rise while it gets baked

Step 9: Bake the tart shell at 180°C for around 20 mins or until golden brown

Step 10: Remove from the oven and keep it aside to cool down

Step 11: The next step is to make the Strawberry Panna Cotta

Step 12: Chop the strawberries and blend them in a blender to make a fine puree

Step 13: It will yield approximately 1 cup of strawberry puree

Step 14: In a pan, take 1/4 cup of water and sprinkle the gelatin over it

Step 15: Keep it aside for 10 minutes

Step 16: The gelatine will bloom

Step 17: Whisk the cream and sugar until smooth and form stiff peaks

Step 18: Fold the gelatin and the strawberry puree into the cream mixture until well combine

Step 19: Take care not to overbeat the mixture

Step 20: Pour the strawberry Panna Cotta into chilled tart shell and keep it in the freezer to set for at least 2 to 3 hours

Step 21: Once set, you can pour the chocolate Ganache we make below to the tart

Step 22: Next, for the Chocolate Ganache

Step 23: Chop the dark chocolate into small pieces, add it into the saucepan

Step 24: Add cream to the chocolate and place it over a double boiler

Step 25: Keep stirring it until the chocolate ganache becomes nice and smooth
