STAR ANISE CRÈME BRULEE

This free Star Anise Crème Brulee Recipe is decadently divine! Use cinnamon, coffee, vanilla or orange zest for creative, alternative flavours.


Ingredients


280ml milk
280ml cream
2 star anise pods
6 egg yolks
60ml sugar
60ml castor sugar


Method
  • Heat the milk, cream and star anise together until steaming.
  • Fill a deep baking tray halfway with water and place it in the oven at 120°C.
  • In another mixing bowl whisk together the egg yolks and the sugar.
  • Pour the hot milk mixture through a sieve into the egg mixture, whisking continuously to prevent the egg from cooking.
  • Pour the mixture into 4 ramekins almost to the top, carefully place them into water.
  • Bake for about an hour, until the custards are just set.
  • Allow to cool, sprinkle with castor sugar and caramelise with a blow torch or place them under a very hot grill to melt the sugar.
  • Serve immediately.
