Sauce Anglaise
7. Split the vanilla pod and take out the seeds with the back of a small knife. Reserve the pod.
8. Add the seeds to the egg yolks, whisk them with the sugar until light, frothy and doubled in size.
9. Add the vanilla pod to the milk and cream mixture and bring this to the boil carefully in a thick bottomed saucepan.
10. Pour the cream / milk mixture into the egg yolks whisking continuously.
Return to the milk saucepan stirring continuously. Heat gently until the mixture thickens and coats the back of a wooden spoon.
11. Remove from the heat. Pass through a sieve (which will extract the vanilla pod) into a clean container and leave to cool before use.
