  2. In a glass bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, cream, 50g of sugar and the lemon zest. Pour into two ramekins

  4. Bake for 40-50 minutes or until almost set but still with a slight wobble in the centres
  5. Allow the custards to cool in their water bath, then cover with cling film and place in the fridge for at least eight hours
  6. When ready to serve, sprinkle one teaspoon of sugar over the top of each custard and melt using a cook’s blowtorch (or under a hot grill) until it turns dark golden-brown and hard. Serve immediately.
