Ingredients
Six eggs
One vanilla pod
One pint of milk
200g sugar
Method
1 To make caramel, make a sugar syrup with 125g sugar and
a drop of water. Bring to the boil. Keep boiling until the sugar
changes to an amber colour. Pour the caramel into six Dariol
moulds. Set aside.
2 Meanwhile heat the milk with the vanilla pod. Mix the eggs
with the rest of the sugar. Pour on the hot milk and mix. Fill
the Dariol moulds. Cook in a bain-marie in the middle of the
oven (gas mark three) for 30 minutes. Allow to cool.
To serve
Carefully turn out the caramel from its mould on to a serving
plate and in a fan shape around the caramel, arrange half a
poached pear.
