Method
-
step 1
Bring the cream and cardamom to a very gentle simmer for 5 minutes but make sure it doesn’t boil. Remove from the heat and allow to cool.
-
step 2
Pass through a fine sieve and chill in the fridge overnight (it must be very chilled to whip).
-
step 3
Once cold, whip to soft peaks.
-
step 4
In a separate bowl, combine the condensed milk, sea salt, sesame seeds and black pepper.
-
step 5
Fold the condensed milk mixture into the cream. Combine until well mixed but fold gently so as not to knock any air out.
-
step 6
Prepare a tin or tray (a 2lb loaf tin is ideal) by brushing it very lightly with oil and lining with baking paper. Pour the mixture into the tray and freeze for 4-6 hours, until frozen.
-
step 7
Once frozen, tip out and cut into rectangles approximately 10cm x 4cm. Using squares of baking paper, wrap each portion so it’s airtight and put them into a container and refreeze until ready to serve.
Cook's note: To make brown butter, heat unsalted butter in a small pan on a medium heat and continually stir for 5-8 minutes until the butter darkens and smells nutty. The milk solids in the butter will turn a light brown, remove from the heat immediately at this point or they will start to burn.
