Ingredients




2 pints Double cream, (40fl oz)
2 Vanilla pods, split lengthways
4 Gelatine leaves
150 ml : cold milk, (1/4 pint)
150 grams Icing sugar, (5 ½oz)
125 ml Lemon liqueuer, (limoncello) plus extra to serve (4fl oz)
Orange rind

Preparation

1 Pour 850ml (1 1/2pints) of the cream into a saucepan and add the vanilla pods and orange rinds. Bring to the boil and once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer until reduced by 1/3. Take out the rinds and pods and scrape the inside of the pods into the cream. 2 Meanwhile, soak the gelatine leaves in the milk until soft. Remove the gelatine. Heat the milk until boiling, then return the gelatine to it and stir until completely dissolved. Pour the gelatine mix into the hot cream, stir and let cool. 3 Whip the remaining cream with the icing sugar and fold into the cooled cooked cream. Add the lemon liqueuer, and pour into a bowl or individual glasses or dishes (perhaps with the liqueuer at the bottom). Place in the fridge and leave to set for approx. 1 hour. 4 To serve, scoop into serving dishes or into the individual dishes.
