Instructions

  1. Chop 10 g of shelled pistachios roughly and set aside. If using mastic, crush the pinch of grains to a powder with a few grains of the sugar in a small mortar.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk 20 g of cornflour with 50 ml of the cold milk until completely smooth and lump-free.
  3. Put the remaining 200 ml of milk and 25 g of caster sugar in a small heavy-based saucepan over a medium heat. Stir until the sugar dissolves and the milk is steaming with small bubbles at the edge, about 3 minutes; do not let it boil.
