Ingredients

For the Vanilla Custard pots

  • a few drops of vegetable oil
  • 40 g granulated sugar
  • 380 ml semi-skimmed a2 milk
  • 3 eggs
  • ½ tsp vanilla essence

For the Raspberry Coulis

  • 100 g raspberries – use frozen ones out of season
  • 1 dsp icing sugar
  • squeeze of lime juice

Instructions

  • For the baked vanilla custard
  • Preheat the oven to 150C / GM2
  • Pour the oil onto a piece of kitchen paper and lightly oil the inside of 4 x 150ml ramekins’
  • Put the sugar and milk into a saucepan. Bring to a simmer
  • Whilst the milk mixture is heating, crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk them using an electric whisk.
  • Slowly add the hot milk to the eggs, whisking all the time.
  • Put the ramekins in a large roasting tin, then pour the milk and egg mixture into the ramekins; you may need to strain it through a small sieve or tea strainer if there are any strands of egg.
  • Pop the baking tray onto the oven shelf then fill the tin with boiling water so it come up half way up the outside of each ramekin.
  • Bake in the oven for about 30 minutes until the baked custards feel firm to the touch when the centre is pressed gently, but still retain some wobble.
  • Carefully lift the ramekins out of the water bath and stand on a wire rack to cool. Once cool, pop them into the fridge to chill for a few hours of overnight.
  • For the raspberry coulis
  • Place all the ingredients into a mini chopper, blender or food processor and whizz until smooth. Pass through a fine mesh sieve to remove the seeds.
  • To serve
  • Carefully run a knife around the edge of the custard to loosen, put a plate over the top, flip upside down and gently shake if needed to coax out of the ramekin.
  • Serve with the raspberry coulis and some berries.
