Caramel Pudding

The idea of starting a blog hit me while I was eating a caramel pudding :) So i decided this would be my first entry. You should try this. May be some idea may hit you too ;)

Ingredients (Would serve 4 people twice. You do the math):
Milk : 1 litre
Egg  : 3 nos.
Custard Powder : 1 table spoon
Gelatin : 2 tablespoon
Sugar : 1 cup (including 2 tablespoon for caramel)
Vanilla Essence : 2drops


Cooking time : 30 minutes

Method :
Soak gelatin in half a cup of cold water
Boil milk well. Let it cool.
Whip  3 eggs.
Mix custard powder in  little amount of milk. Pour back the mixture to remaining milk and blend it well.
Take the soaked gelatin and double boil  it to liquid ( Double boiling : Boil water in a vessel and keep the gelatin container into the boiled water so that it melts in the heat of the boiled water. Should not boil gelatin in direct flame)
Blend whipped egg and sugar in milk mixture and boil.
Cook in low flame till it reaches a thick consistency. (It will start coating on spatula)
Remove from flame and add liquefied gelatin and essence.

Now lets make caramel
Melt 2 teaspoon sugar in low flame. Keep stirring till it becomes brown in colour. ( Don't be greedy on colour. It may burn off)
Pour it into the pudding tray / vessel and spread it all over.

Pour the ready mixture into this tray.
Keep aside for cooling
Once cooled, keep it in fridge. Do not freeze.

You can try decorations as per your creativity. Test on someone. If good eat it all by yourself ;)
