Preparation and cooking times
Ready in 50 mins
- Put the milk and cinnamon in a pan and bring to just below boiling point, take off the heat, cover and leave to infuse for 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, boil the chilli flakes in 150ml water for 3 minutes then strain back into the pan. Add the sugar, heat until completely dissolved, then boil rapidly until a golden-brown caramel. Pour the hot caramel into 4 small ramekins or metal pudding moulds (about 200ml) and swirl it around the bottom and slightly up the sides. Leave to set.
- Heat the oven to 160C/fan 140C/gas 3. Whisk the eggs and sugar together, bring the milk back to a simmer, pull out the cinnamon stick, then pour over the eggs, whisking. Strain the custard into the ramekins. Sit the ramekins in a small roasting tin and pour hot water into the tin to come halfway up the ramekins. Bake for 20-30 minutes until custards are just set. Cool, then chill for at least 2 hours (preferably overnight).
- To serve, run a knife around the edges of each ramekin and turn onto a small plate.
