Dairy-free panna cotta with macadamia nuts

Heart-healthy Mokhado Macadamia Oil, is made by local farmers on family-owned groves in the Limpopo region of South Africa. With its lightly toasted flavour, this cold-pressed oil brings a hint of nuttiness to salad dressings. It’s also good stirred into vegetable mash, paired with chocolate in a mousse or in a simple sponge cake. M&S chef Jon Jones uses its unique flavour in this innovative panna cotta.
