I have used a 200 ml cup for measuring milk.

So, let's head on to the recipe of making Caramel Custard or Caramel flan or Egg pudding.

Serves: 4

Ingredients

3 eggs
2 cups of milk
9 tbsp sugar

For caramel syrup

1 tbsp water
2 tbsp sugar

Method

Boil 2 cups of milk in a pan, then reduce the heat and cook for some time till the milk reduces to half (i.e. 1 cup).
Allow the milk to cool down completely.
Take the eggs in a wide bowl and beat well with a whisk or beater such that whites and yolks are well mixed.
Add sugar and continue whisking till the sugar dissolves.
Now add milk and mix well. Keep the mix ready.
Now for caramelizing the sugar, take a aluminium pudding bowl and add 2 tbsp sugar and a tbsp of water, place it directly on the stove and heat in medium to low flame.
The sugar will start melting and changing colour. Heat till it gets a golden colour. Remove immediately from the stove.
Allow it to cool down and then add the egg-milk-sugar mix to it.
Now take a steamer or Idli cooker and place a ring or stand in the middle. Add 2 or 3 glasses of water.
Place the pudding bowl at the centre on the stand. Close a lid over the bowl. Make sure that no moisture or water enters the pudding bowl. If necessary place some weight over the lid.
Then close the lid of the steamer (or idly cooker) and cook for 30 to 40 minutes.
Once done, wait for 2 to 3 minutes, open the lid, and check if the pudding is cooked. For this insert a skewer or toothpick, if the stick comes out clean the pudding is cooked. Otherwise, add some water to the steamer and steam for 10 more minutes.
Once done allow it to cool, and then refrigerate it for at least 2 hours. For serving, pass a knife along the sides of the pudding bowl, place a plate on top and turn the bowl caramel side up. Cut it into slices and serve.

You can also use a pressure cooker or an electric rice cooker to steam the pudding. The only addition is to place a perforated plate at the bottom of the rice cooker. The procedure and cooking time is the same. The pudding can also be cooked in an oven.
