- 2 tbsp fresh orange juice
- 3 large eggs, separated, plus 1 large egg white
- 6 x 7oz (200ml) ramekins
- Preheat the oven to 400F (200C).
- Place a baking sheet in the oven to preheat.
- Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
- Brush six 7oz (200ml) ramekins with some of the butter.
- Dust the insides of the ramekins with sugar, making sure there are no gaps.
- Whisk the flour into the remaining butter and let bubble over medium heat without browning for about 1 minute.
- Whisk in the milk and bring to a boil, whisking constantly.
- Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 2 minutes.
- Whisk in the orange zest and juice and all but 1 tsp of the sugar.
- Remove from the heat and beat in the egg yolks one at a time.
- Whisk the whites to soft peaks, then beat in the remaining sugar.
- Stir a dollop of the whites into the saucepan, then fold in the remainder.
- Divide among the ramekins.
- Using a knife, make a shallow circle around the ramekins about 1/4 in (6mm) in from the edge.
