Ingredients

Milk 150 ml
Gelatine sheets 1
Orange, lemon and lime 1
Salt, sugar, pepper q.s.
Butter 100 g
Flour 100 g
Egg yolk 1

Method

Start by preparing the panna cotta: boil the milk with the citrus peel and put the gelatine sheets in a bowl with cold water.

When the milk begins to boil, remove it from the heat and add it to the gelatine with a few drops of citrus juice, salt and pepper.

Transfer the mixture to a low container and leave it in the refrigerator for 3 hours.

To prepare the crumble, place the softened butter in a bowl and add the flour, salt and egg yolk, stirring until the mixture is even. Then roll it out on a baking tray with parchment paper and cook it at 160° for 30 minutes.

Cut the citrus fruit into slices, melt the sugar in a pot and let it caramelise.

Clean the prawns and brown them in a pan; finish cooking them in the oven.

Plating

Present the dish in a Samurai gondola, by cutting a cube of panna cotta, adding the crumble, placing a slice of caramelised citrus fruit on top and finally the prawn. Decorate with a mint leaf and balsamic vinegar
