Caramel Custard | എഗ്ഗ് കാരമൽ പുഡ്ഡിംഗ് | Egg Caramel Pudding without custard powder| Preeja's Cookbook

Caramel Custard | Egg Caramel Pudding without custard powder

Ingredients:

Egg - 2 Medium size
Milk - 1 Cup (250 ml)
Granule Sugar - 1/3 cup
Vanilla essence - 1/2 tsp (optional)
Oil / Butter - 1 tsp

For caramel

 Granule sugar - 1/4 cup
Hot water - 1 + 2 tbsp

Method:

1. Coat the inner surface of pudding cup / mold with butter / oil.

2. To make caramel sauce, add sugar and 1 Tbsp of water into a pan . Keep the stove on low heat.

3. Let it sit until the sugar stats to melt. Swirl the pot and even out the sugar liquid.

4. Caramelize the sugar and remove from heat. Add 2 tbsp of hot water with a long-handled ladle.  . Tilt the pot away from you to avoid hot caramel sauce splashing and burning your hand. Swirl  the   pot and even out the hot caramel.
  
5. Pour the caramel evenly into custard cup / mold. I have used small cup for easy individual serving. You can use one cup and slice the pudding after steaming and serve individually. 

6 Crack two eggs into a bowl and mix well. 

7. Into a pan add 1 cup of milk and 1/3 cup of sugar. Keep stove on low heat. No need to boil the milk. The sugar should dissolve in milk completely.

8. Add the milk into beaten egg , while whisking the mixture. If the milk is too hot, then allow it to cool down and add into beaten egg. otherwise the egg will cook with heat inside milk. Add vanilla essence and mix well.

9. Sieve the egg mixture with a fine mesh strainer. Gently fill the custard cups / mold with egg mixture.

10. Cover each cup with aluminum foil. It will prevent the surface from getting dry. It will also help steam the pudding evenly.

11. Steam the pudding for 20 minutes in a idli steamer. If you don't have a steamer then heat water in a pan and gently place the custard cups. There should be enough hot water to cover the bottom of cups. Keep a kitchen towel in water between pan and custard cups. The kitchen towel will soften the heat at the bottom. Cover the pan with lid. Do not boil water if you are using a pan. The soft texture of pudding will lost . Keep stove on low heat.

12. Remove the custard cup / mold from steamer and allow it to cool completely. Before serving keep it in refrigerator for atleast one hour.

13. Let's serve the pudding. Remove aluminum foil . Scrap the side of custard cup / mold with tip of knife. Tap the mold and keep a serving plate to cover the mold .gently take the cup. Serve it.
