How to make it 👨‍🍳

1

Submerge the Gelatine leaves in a bowl of cold water for 5 minutes until completely soft and floppy.

2

Pour the Double cream, Whole milk, and Caster sugar into a saucepan. Split the Vanilla pod or vanilla extract lengthways and scrape the seeds into the pan — add the empty pod too for extra flavour.

3

Heat over medium heat, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Bring to just below a simmer — small bubbles at the edges, but do not boil.

4

Remove from the heat. Lift the Gelatine leaves from the water, squeeze out the excess, and stir them into the hot cream until fully dissolved.

5

Strain through a fine sieve into a jug to remove the vanilla pod and any lumps.

6

Pour into individual moulds or ramekins and refrigerate for at least 4 hours until set firm.

7

To unmould, dip the base of each mould briefly in hot water for 10 seconds, run a thin knife around the edge, and invert onto a serving plate. Serve with Fresh berries or berry coulis alongside.
