Beat the eggs, cornflour and sugar until it is a smooth paste.
In a saucepan, gently heat the whole milk, vanilla essence and double cream until warm but not boiling.
Gradually pour some warm milk and cream mixture into the egg mixture, stirring continuously. this is called tempering.
Next gradually add all of the milk mixture.
Transfer the entire mixture back into the saucepan.
Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the custard thickens and coats the back of a spoon, about 5-7 minutes.
DO NOT LET IT BOIL, or the eggs will scramble.
Strain and Serve: Strain the custard through a fine sieve to remove any lumps, then pour into a serving dish or jug.

Adjust cornflour for desired thickness; more for thicker custard.
Adjust the sugar level for desired sweetness.
Freeze the egg whites, you can use them for meringues later.
