Notes

You can use full-fat cottage cheese for a richer texture.
Adjust sweeteners based on the natural tartness of the strawberries.
Paneer can be used as an alternative to cottage cheese.
Note: If you prefer a sweeter panna cotta, don't skimp on the sweetener—strawberries and cottage cheese can have a slight tang when unsweetened.
