Servings: 4
Prep time: 20 minutes cook time: 60 minutes

INGREDIENTS:

250 ml Heavy cream
1 teaspoon Vanilla extract 150 g Sugar
A pinch of Salt
1 pinch Cinnamon
3 Teabags of Mrs. Agra Chai tea
3 Egg yolks

INSTRUCTIONS:

Preheat the oven to 130 degrees Celsius.
Combine heavy cream, 100 g of sugar, salt, cinnamon and vanilla extract in a medium saucepan and boil the mixture on medium heat. Stir occasionally to ensure that the sugar dissolves.
Take the pan off heat and put the teabags in. Set for 10 minutes.
Separate the eggs and whisk the egg yolks until it’s smooth.
Remove the teabags and add the egg yolks a little at a time, stirring continually until all is combined. Pour the liquid into 4 ramekins and place them in a big baking dish (e.g. Pie dish). Pour enough boiling water into the baking dish for the ramekins to be standing halfway in the water.
Bake the crème brulee for 60 minutes until its set, but still trembling in the center.
Remove the ramekins from the baking dish and let them cool down for about 60 minutes.
Divide the remaining sugar equally among the 4 servings. Using a torch, melt the sugar to get a crispy browned top. Serve and enjoy
