Fresh egg vanilla custard

Method

1. Put the seeds from a vanilla pod into a pan with the milk and bring just to the boil.
2. In a clean bowl, whisk the egg yolks with the golden caster sugar and cornflour until pale and thickened. Pour over the boiling milk, mix to combine, then return to the pan.
3. Cook over a very gentle heat for 5-7 minutes until it coats the back of a spoon. Strain and keep warm in a flask.
