  3. Add the milk and sugar to a saucepan and heat. When the mixture starts to bubble, continue to stir it for about 15 minutes or until the mixture has reduced to half its original size.
  4. When the mixture has cooled, add in the egg yolks and vanilla essence and mix. Then strain the mixture.
  5. Pour an even portion of the egg mixture into each of the tart crusts from Step 2. The mixture may seem to be a bit hard, but don't worry. Bake on the top shelf of the oven at 230℃ for 12-13 minutes until golden brown.
