  • 350ml whole milk
  • 100ml double cream
  • 125g golden caster sugar
  • zest of one small orange
  • 2 vanilla pods, seeds scraped
  • 500g Greek yoghurt
  • pulp and seeds from 3 ripe passion fruit

  3. When ready to serve, run a sharp knife round the edge of one mould and dip into a bowl of just boiled water for 5 seconds. unmould onto a plate and repeat with the remaining puddings.
  4. Spoon the passion fruit pulp evenly over the six puddings and serve.
