Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups Heavy Cream
  • ½ cup Thai Tea Leaves
  • 5 large Egg Yolks
  • ½ cup Sugar plus extra for caramelizing
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract

Instructions 

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
  2. In a saucepan, heat heavy cream and Thai tea leaves until just boiling. Remove from heat and let steep for 10 minutes. Strain and discard tea leaves.
  3. In a bowl, whisk egg yolks and sugar until pale. Slowly add the warm cream mixture, whisking constantly. Stir in vanilla extract.
  4. Pour mixture into ramekins. Place ramekins in a baking dish and fill the dish with hot water halfway up the sides of the ramekins.
  5. Bake for 35-40 minutes, until set but still slightly jiggly in the center. Remove from oven and let cool. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
  6. Before serving, sprinkle a thin layer of sugar on top of each custard. Use a blowtorch to caramelize the sugar until golden brown. Serve immediately.
