as various brands may have slightly different methods.
3.
Place the remaining milk in a saucepan together with the cream, sugar and
vanilla pod and seeds and heat gently to simmering point, stirring from time to
time.
4. Remove from the
heat then sir in the gelatine mixture and
continue to stir constantly for a couple of minutes to dissolve
the gelatin completely.
5.
Pour into ramekins, allow to cool then chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, until
well set.
6. Make the sauce
by placing the fruit, sugar and honey in a saucepan over a medium heat. Mash the
fruit with a potato masher then continue to cook gently, stirring with a wooden
spoon, for a few minutes.

mixture to cool then pass through a sieve or pur�e with a hand blender until
very smooth. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

each ramekin in a small bowl with enough boiling water to come 3/4 of the
way up the ramekin. Leave for a few seconds only then loosen the top
edges with a sharp knife and turn onto a small serving plate or shallow bowl and
pour over a little of the coulis and garnish with extra fresh berries if
desired.
