Whisk the egg yolks and sugar together in a bowl until well blended.

Place finely chopped thyme, 300ml milk, and 300ml cream into a pan and bring to the boil.

Remove the pan from heat and pour a small amount of the hot liquid onto the egg mixture while mixing well.

Return the mixture to the pan and stir lightly over heat to thicken without boiling.

Stir with a wooden spoon until the custard coats the back of the spoon.

Remove from heat and pass through a sieve into a clean saucepan to remove thyme leaves.

Leave to cool completely while stirring occasionally.
