  • 1 1 leaf of gelatin

  • 1 tsp 1 vanilla extract (not vanilla essence)

  • 1 tbsp 1 dark rum (optional)

Instructions

  • Soak gelatin in a little cold water until soft.
  • Grab a heavy based pot and add cream and sugar.
  • Split and scrape out vanilla pod. Add whole pod and vanilla extract.
  • Gently bring to a boil, then take off the heat and allow to cool slightly to 55° C.
  • Mix in gelatin until dissolved.
  • Mix in rum, then strain through a fine sieve.
  • Add to moulds and refrigerate (preferably overnight) until set.
  • Finish it with your favourite topping, caramel, chocolate, fresh fruit or mixed berry compote.
