Enjoy a proper home-made egg custard with Jo Pratt's recipe for traditional crème Anglaise, delicious with puddings
 

Crème Anglaise

Method
 
1. Place the milk in a saucepan. Scrape the seeds from the vanilla pod and add the seeds and the pod to the milk. Cook for 5 minutes, bringing to boiling point.

2. Meanwhile, place the yolks in a heatproof bowl. Add in the caster sugar and whisk lightly to combine.

3. Place the yolk sugar mixture over a pan of simmering water for a few minutes, whisking constantly.

4. Transfer the yolk mixture to a mixing bowl. Strain the hot milk and add in steady steam to the yolk mixture, whisking as you do. Whisk until the mixture thickens into a crème Anglaise.
