Orange Soufflé Recipe

To start the dish, make the chocolate sorbet. Add the milk, sugar and water to a pan and bring to the boil. Break the chocolate into pieces in a heatproof bowl, pour the boiled milk mixture over the chocolate and mix until smooth and melted

Pass the mixture through a sieve and allow to cool. Churn in an ice cream machine according to manufacturer's instructions. Once churned, store in the freezer until ready to serve

To make the soufflé base, whisk together the egg yolk, flour and custard powder in a bowl until smooth. Meanwhile, add the milk, sugar and orange zest to a pan and bring to the boil

Once boiling, pour the milk mixture into the egg mixture, return to the pan and whisk continuously until thick. Cool rapidly by placing in the fridge. When cold whisk the mixture until smooth and weigh out 150g - this will be used in the final soufflé mix

Grease the moulds with butter and dust with the cocoa powder, tapping out any excess. Set aside until required

To finish the soufflés, whisk the egg whites to soft peaks in a mixing bowl. Add the sugar, keep whisking for 30 seconds or so, then delicately mix 1/3 of the egg whites into the soufflé base. Once incorporated, slowly stir in the remaining egg whites

Preheat the oven to 170°C/gas mark 3.5

In the bottom of each mould, place an orange segment. Spoon the soufflé mixture into each mould, flatten the top with a palette knife and run your thumb around the inside of the mould to create a rim. Bake in the oven for 10 minutes, until nicely risen and cooked through

Serve the soufflés with a scoop of the chocolate sorbet
