Method

Preheat the oven to 120°C.

Whisk egg yolks, caster sugar, and vanilla seeds in a bowl until pale and fluffy.

Whisk the milk and cream into the egg mixture until well combined.

Ladle the mixture into ramekins and place them into a deep roasting tin.

Fill the tin halfway up the sides of the ramekins with boiling water and bake for one hour.

Cool the ramekins at room temperature, then refrigerate for at least two hours.

Blend half of the strawberries in a food processor and strain through a sieve.

Halve the remaining strawberries and stir them into the sieved purée.

Sprinkle demerara sugar over the custards and caramelise with a blowtorch before serving with sauce.
