Nigella's Liquorice Pudding

I adapted the recipe to use 284 ml of cream and liquorice liqueur; to keep calories low I made 4 small mousses (290 cals a portion) 
40 ml water
40 ml liquorice liqueur
284 ml double cream
3 teaspoons cornflour
1.5 tablespoon milk

1.      Put the water and liquorice in your smallest pan and bring to the boil.

2.      Spoon the corn flour into a little bowl, cup or ramekin and whisk in the milk until you have a smooth paste.

3.      Pour this, whisking as you go, into the mixture in the saucepan. Still whisking, put the pan back on the heat and bring back to a bubble, whisking all the while, for 20-30 seconds, or until thickened.
4.      Whisk cream and then stir in liquorice mix
5.      Divide between glasses or cups and and put them in the fridge to chill for at least 2 hours or overnight.
6.      Let the puddings come to room temperature before serving. Put the soft sea salt on the table to sprinkle over as you eat, if wished.
