  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 200°C (180°C fan, gas mark 6)

  2. 2

    Cut the figs in to quarters and peel the oranges and the grapefruit, removing the pith and skin of each segment. Boil the milk in a saucepan.

    For this step you'll need:

    • 8 Figs
    • 2 Orange(s)
    • 1 Grapefruit
    • 600ml Milk (whole)
  3. 3

    In a bowl, mix together the cornflour and sugar, and beat in the egg yolks.  Pour in the boiling milk, and continue beating.  The mixture should thicken instantly.

    For this step you'll need:

    • 2 tbsp Cornflour
    • 50g Unrefined golden caster sugar
    • 2 Egg yolk(s) (free range) large
    • 2 Egg white(s) (free range)
  4. 4

    Divide the fruit between the 4 casseroles, and add in the milk mixture.  Place on the lids and bake in the oven for 30 minutes.

  5. 5

    When 30 minutes has almost passed, beat the egg whites and icing sugar until stiff.  Take the casseroles out of the oven and divide the meringue mixture between the 4, and place under a hot grill for 1 minute or until the top has browned.

    For this step you'll need:

    • 2 Egg white(s) (free range)
    • 1 tbsp Icing sugar
