Ingredients:

75ml milk

75ml cream

35g sugar

1 egg yolk

10g corn starch

½ tsp vanilla extract

5g butter

Method

Mix the milk and cream together and leave ¼ of the mixture on the side. Bring the remaining liquid to boil.

Mix sugar, corn flour, the cold milk and cream mixture and egg yolk together, and mix until smooth.

Pour the boiling liquid into the egg yolk and sugar mixture in one go, mix it and pour it back into the saucepan. Boil it, while continuously mixing.

Cook until it bubbles from the centre and then take it off the heat.

Transfer the cream to a clean bowl and start to whisk slowly for about a minute until the mixture cools down.

Mix in the butter.

Scrape all around the bowl and cover it with cling film to use later.
