πͺ Instructions:
-
Prepare Ebly: Cook the Ebly in 1.5 liters of water for approximately 20 minutes, adjusting the cooking time to achieve your desired texture. Add orange peel to infuse flavor while cooking.
-
Drain and Discard: Once the Ebly is cooked to perfection, drain it and discard the orange peel.
-
Warm the Milk: Gently warm the milk in a saucepan over low heat, being careful not to let it boil.
-
Prepare Custard: In a mixing bowl, beat together the egg yolks, sugar, and cornflour until well combined. Slowly pour in the warm milk, whisking continuously to prevent lumps from forming.
-
Cook Custard: Return the custard mixture to the saucepan and place it over medium heat. Bring it to a gentle boil, whisking constantly until thickened and cooked through.
-
Add Orange Juice: Once the custard is thick and smooth, remove it from the heat and stir in the freshly squeezed orange juice along with the whipped cream.
-
Incorporate Ebly: Add the cooked Ebly to the custard mixture, stirring until well combined. Transfer the mixture to a large ovenproof serving dish or individual pots.
-
Optional Chilling: At this point, you can choose to chill the dessert for a refreshing twist, or proceed immediately to the next step.
-
Caramelized Sugar Glaze: Sprinkle the top of the custard with either light demerara or caster sugar. Place the dish or pots under an extremely hot grill to caramelize the sugar until golden and bubbling.
-
Serve and Enjoy: Once the sugar has caramelized to perfection, remove the dessert from the grill and serve immediately, savoring each spoonful of this irresistible Ebly and orange custard with its delightful caramelized sugar topping.
