Steps to make Crème Brûlée:
- Preheat the oven to 150°C fan assisted
- Pour the cream into a saucepan
- Split the vanilla pod lengthways and scrape the seeds into the cream
- Bring the cream to boiling point and then simmer for about 5 minutes
- In another bowl beat the yolks and the sugar together until light and fluffy
- Bring the cream back to boiling point and then whisk into the egg mixture until it thickens
- Strain the mixture into a jug through a fine sieve
- Place the ramekins into a roasting tray and then fill them with the cream mixture
- Pour boiling water into the roasting tray until it reaches half way up the ramekins (this is known as Bain-marie)
- Place the tray on the middle shelf in the oven and bake for about 35-40 minutes until they are just set and still have a little wobble
- Remove from the oven and let them cool at room temperature and then refrigerate until needed
- Just before serving, sprinkle with Demerara sugar and using a blow torch caramelise the top (you can use the oven grill to brown them if you don’t have a blow torch)
- Leave to cool for a few minutes before serving, so that the sugar hardens
