Whisk well and pour it in a tilted glass so that half side of the glass is covered with strawberry puree.(watch video for more clarity)
Place in the refrigerator for 3-4 hours or until set.
Now heat milk, heavy cream and sugar in a pan.
Make sure not to boil the mixture.
Once hot add the agar agar powder and whisk well to avoid lumps.
Cook till the mixture thickens.
Now add the vanilla extract and mix.
Let it cool.
Once the strawberry puree is set pour the milk mixture to the remaining half side and set in the refrigerator for 3-4 hours or until set.

Notes:

You can even layer the strawberry puree and white cream can be done differently by pouring each part horizontally.
Panna Cotta can also be prepared by mixing the milk cream and strawberry puree.
In this recipe I have used Agar Agar powder which is a vegetarian alternative to Gelatin. It is easily available in grocery stores.
