3. Temper the chocolate by placing the metal bowl in cold water and stirring constantly until glossy - it should reduce to at least 30 degrees celsius (Do not get a drop of water in the chocolate mix!)

4. Remove from bowl from the water and working very quickly, hand whisk the egg yolk into the melted chocolate and then whisk in a third of the egg white. Fold the rest very gently into the mixture until just combined (be careful not to overmix), and then put into bowls and refrigerate for at least four hours until set.

Remember to serve with semi whipped cream and chocolate shavings for that added touch!
