Ingredients
 

  • 1 orange rind grated
  • 15 floz milk
  • 5 floz carton double cream
  • 3 oz runny honey
  • 2 large eggs
  • 4 large egg yolks
  • 1 oz caster sugar
  • slivers of orange rind to decorate
  • Kirsch Cherry Compote to serve

Instructions

  • Place the orange rind, milk and cream in a pan, then bring to the boil. Set aside for 30 minutes to infuse.
  • Place a 1.7 litre (3 pint) souffle dish or six 150 ml (5 fl oz) coffee cups or ramekins in the oven at 150°C/130°C fan oven/Gas Mark 2 to warm. Bring the honey to the boil in a small heavy-based pan. Bubble for 2 to 3 minutes, until it begins to caramelise. Pour the caramel into the warmed dish or ramekins and rotate it to coat the base evenly. Leave to cool and harden.
  • Place the eggs, yolks and sugar in a bowl and beat together until smooth. Add the infused milk mixture and stir until well combined, then strain into the dish(es).
  • Place the dish, coffee cups or ramekins in a roasting tin, filled with enough hot water to come halfway up the side(s) of the dish(es). Bake at 150°C/130° fan oven/Gas Mark 2 for 1 hour 10 minutes for the souffle dish, 45 to 50 minutes for the coffee cups or ramekins or until just set in the middle. Cool and chill for at least 6 hours or overnight. Decorate with orange rind.
