This is a great sauce for a Christmas pudding, or a good dessert in its own right if you want to steer clear of heavy pudding.
Try this flexible recipe in the Christmas period that can be a sauce or a pudding.
Serves 10
Ingredients
8 egg yolks
150g sugar
100ml sweet sherry
100ml dark rum
Directions
Find a metal or glass bowl that will stand over a medium bowl of boiling water.
Put the egg yolks and sugar in the bowl with half the alcohol.
Whisk well with an electric whisk or a strong arm over the pan of boiling water for about five minutes until the mixture is warm and thick.
Then add the remaining sherry and rum and whisk more for a further five minutes while it continues to cook over the pan.
If the mixture starts to stick, take it off the heat.
You can tell it's ready once the mixture comes off the whisk in thick ribbons and it is just about too hot to hold your finger in.
Serve while still warm.
