Suzanne Green from Caerphilly drew her opening day meal to a close with this French recipe on Come Dine With Me's Cardiff leg.

Serves 5

Ingredients

  • 425 ml double cream
  • 175 ml whole milk
  • 1 bunch of fresh mint
  • 7 large eggs
  • 90g caster sugar
  • 5 tbsp of fine demerara sugar for dusting
  • handful of strawberries

Method: How to make mint crème brûlée with strawberries

1. Preheat the oven to 140°C or 275° F, gas mark 1. Put cream, milk and mint in a saucepan, bring to the boil then remove from the heat and leave to infuse for 2 hours.

2. Whisk the eggs and the caster sugar until creamy. Bring the milk back to the boil then pass through a sieve into the egg mixture. Strain again and serve between 5 ramekins. Bake for about 40 minutes then remove from the oven. When cool, refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

3. Just before serving, dust the top of each brûlée with the demerara sugar and glaze with a blow torch. Serve with strawberries on top.
