Scrape vanilla pod and add pulp to a blender, together with all the other ingredients and blend. Add mixture to a cold pot and bring to a boil.
Boil until thickened, stirring occasionally, for about 5-7 minutes.
Spoon mixture into two large or four small ramekins. Cool to room temperature and refrigerate until firm (1-2 hours).
Right before serving, sprinkle 1 tbsp (if using large) or 1/2 tbsp (if using small ramekins) sugar evenly on the top of each ramekin and heat with a blowtorch until sugar has caramelized. Allow to sit for a minute until the caramelized sugar hardens.
Serve as is or with some fresh fruit and mint.
