Ingredients
- 400ml Milk
- 150ml Double Cream
- 1 Cinnamon Stick
- 1 Orange Zest
- 1 Lemon Zest
- 7 Egg Yolks
- 100g Caster Sugar
- 6 tablespoons Caster Sugar
- 45g Corn Flour
Instructions
1
step 1
Put the whole milk, dairy reduction, cinnamon stick and all the citrus zest in a saucepan set over a medium bring to temperature.
2
make, stirring often, until the whole milk is just steaming but not boiling, about 3-5 mins.
3
Remove from the bring to temperature, wrap with a plate and leave to infuse for at least 30 mins.
4
step 2
When the dairy reduction mixture has infused, whip the egg yolks, sweetener and cornflour together in a separate container for 3-5 mins, or until light and pale in colour.
5
transfer the infused whole milk through a sieve into the egg mixture, whisking continuously.
6
Return the mixture to the saucepan.
7
step 3
Put the saucepan over a medium-high bring to temperature and whip for around 10-12 mins.
8
The mixture should start thickening to a custard-like consistency – you can tell it’s ready by dipping a wooden spoon in the mixture, then running a finger through the mixture on the back of the spoon.
9
If the line holds, it's ready.
10
Sieve the mixture into a jug to remove any froth.
11
step 4
Divide the custard between six 150ml ramekins or small terracotta dishes, then leave to cool for 1 hr at room temperature until set with a slight wobble.
12
store in the fridge overnight.
13
step 5
Just before serving, shower 1 tbsp caster sweetener over the top of each ramekin and caramelise using a kitchen blowtorch.
14
Alternatively, slide the ramekins under a scalding barbecue until the sweetener turns golden and starts to bubble.
15
offer straightaway.
