Steps:

  • Blanch and peel unsalted pistachio nuts.
  • Add 1 tablespoon of rosewater and grind in a mortar and pestle to a paste.
  • Separate 5 egg yolks and blend with a third of a cup of sugar, stir until blended.
  • Pour double cream into a saucepan, add the pistachio paste
  • and simmer over a medium heat for five minutes. You can add a little more rosewater to taste, factoring in the additional sweetness of the sugar. Strain.
  • add the cream to the eggs and sugar slowly, gently stirring it in.
  • pour the mixture into four ramekins, filling to just below the rim
  • Put the ramekins in a roasting tray with enough warm water to reach half way up the ramekins. Put in a 170c oven for about forty minutes. It's best to keep an eye on it, the edges should be firm with a bit of wobble left in the middle.
  • refrigerate for at least a few hours. One of the advantages of this dish is that you can make it the day before and bring it out of the fridge at the last minute
  • Sprinkle a tablespoon of sugar over each ramekin
  • and level it evenly. Ignite the blowtorch and work it over until
  • golden brown.
