1. Put the milk in a saucepan with the cinammon stick and heat. Save a small glass of cold milk.

2. Beat the egg yolks with the sugar. Dissolve the cornflour in the cold milk, stir well and then add to the eggs and sugar.

3. When the milk is starting to boil, remove the cinammon stick and add the mixture of flour, milk, eggs and sugar. Stir well over the heat until the custard thickens. Don't boil.

Tips and ideas: Spanish natillas

  • Many Spanish cooks add a biscuit to the natillas mixture when they are pouring it into the individual bowls. The biscuit sometimes rises and as the natillas cool, becomes soft. A bit like a Spanish version of stale cake in English trifle. If you want to do this, choose a plain biscuit (the Spanish "Maria" biscuits are what Spanish people use).
