Ingredients
- 400 ml double cream
- 100 ml semi-skimmed milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 5 egg yolks
- 50 g white sugar (plus extra for the topping)
- 200 g raspberries
Instructions
- Separate the eggs and whisk the egg yolks and sugar together in a bowl until they turn pale in colour. This may take a few minutes.
- Add the cream, milk and vanilla extract to a pan pan a medium heat and heat until it starts to bubble, stirring constantly. Take it off the heat and slowly pour into the egg and sugar mixture, whisking constantly until it has completely combined. Doing this slowly ensures that the eggs don't cook at this stage.
- Strain the mixture through a sieve and remove as much of the white foam that will form on top as possible.
- Distribute the rasperries evenly into 10 small ramekins and pour the mixture over the top until each ramekin is full.
- Place the ramekins in a deep-walled baking tray or dish. Fill and boil the kettle and pour boiling water into the dish until it reaches around half way up the side of the ramekins.
- Place the dish in an oven at 170°C (fan) for around 18 minutes. The brûlées should be wobbly in the centre. Remove them from the dish and allow to cool – these can now be stored in the fridge until ready to serve.
- To serve, sprinkle a couple of tsps of white sugar on top of the brûlées and melt with a chef's blow torch. The sugar should quickly go hard as it cools. Serve immediately. Alternatively if you do not have a blow torch, use a grill on high heat.
