Crème Brulee is one of the hardest desserts to get right, basically it’s an egg custard that is cooked on a low heat to just set the mix, lots of flavours can be added and over the years I have played around with all different kinds of flavours. My favourite is White Chocolate & Vanilla.

I have used this recipe for over 15 years and it has yet to fail me!

The texture should be smooth and creamy but also light, so many times I have eaten crème brulee and its been runny or so hard you cannot get your spoon in it, also glazing the top is really important. I use a little castor sugar, making sure that it’s evenly spread over the brulee and then glaze until golden brown, but not too dark or it will be bitter.

Enjoy!

White Chocolate & Vanilla Crème Brulee
Makes 8
Gas Mark 3

5 Large Egg Yolks
4 oz Castor Sugar
1 pt Double Cream
2 oz White Chocolate
1 Vanilla Pod, Scrape out seeds

Method…

• Place egg yolks and sugar in bowl and stir for 1 minute

• Heat cream and vanilla in microwave until almost boiling

• Pour hot cream and vanilla onto egg mix and stir all the time (do not use whisk as this will create air bubbles)

• Add white chocolate and the heat of mix will melt chocolate and make mix velvety

• Fill ramekins about ¾ the way up and place in tray and fill hot water around the moulds (Bain Marie) the water should just come up over half way on the ramekins.

• Place in pre heated oven for 30 minutes

• You are looking for a little wobble in the middle of the brulee (about the size of a 2p) when you have this turn oven off and leave in for 10 minutes.

• Take out of oven and leave on side for 30 minutes in water

• Take out and refrigerate for at least 6 hours

• When ready sprinkle with castor sugar and glaze top with gas gun or grill

Dan’s Dish Tip: Serve Brulee with Raspberry Sorbet and maybe some crushed raspberries and shredded Mint.

Catering at Home with the RED Anywhere Masterchef Experience - below is a recent client testimonial from Val in Worthing:

Just had to say a “big” thank you for an amazing meal courtesy of Dan Clarke, masterchef of RedAnywhere.

I was fortunate enough to be invited out for the evening to a meal which was being held at a friends house. To be honest I really didn’t know what to expect, just that this unexpected surprise had been bidded for in a charity raffle and a masterchef was organising the whole event.

Well from start to finish it was amazing. We were greeted at the door by a member of the RedAnywhere staff and taken through to the lounge where everyone was gathered.

Drinks and canapes were then offered to us and for once the hosts were free to sit back and enjoy the experience whilst Dan and his staff were busily preparing the feast!

Apparently everything had been taken care of from beginning to end. All the food and drinks had been brought in, prepared and cooked in our hosts kitchen.

We were then invited to take our seats at the table which again had been beautifully arranged. It was so relaxed and I had a feeling that it was going to be a great evening. We were not disappointed!!

The food was amazing.

To start I had shredded smoked chicken salad with mango salsa, the main course was rib eye of beef with a horseradish mash and peppercorn sauce. It was delicious and all served so beautifully. With every course there was a different wine to compliment the food. The deserts were to die for. I must admit I have got a sweet tooth and although I was struggling a bit at this point I just had to go for the ‘dessert heaven’ that Dan had created; a mixture of his best desserts served as a medley.

The meal was a complete success. Dan and the waitresses were discreet but on hand all the time to ensure that we were all enjoying ourselves and at the end of the evening they too relaxed and had a glass of wine with us. Believe you me they deserved it.

At the end of the night everything had been magically cleared away and the kitchen had been left spotless.

For anyone who enjoys their food and the company of their friends in comfortable surroundings then this is a sure way of having a really momentous evening, one that I will remember for a long time to come!
