CARAMEL CUSTARD IN A PRESSURE COOKER

CARAMEL CUSTARD IN A PRESSURE COOKER

Caramel custard/pudding is very popular dessert.  It is rich, creamy topped with luscious golden caramel.


I always prepare the caramel custard in pressure cooker.  It is a fool proof recipe with just 4 ingredients which are always available in the pantry.  


Let us get started with this super addictive dessert

·         Preparation Time   :  15 mins
·         Cooking Time           :  10 to 12  mins
·         Serves                          :  2

Ingredients:
·         1 egg
·         1 cup warm milk
·       5 tsp sugar + 4 tsp sugar for caramel
·         1 tsp vanilla extract
·         Mint sprig for garnishing
** 1 cup = 200 ml

Method:

For Caramel:

In a saucepan add 4 tsp sugar and cook on a medium flame until a golden brown color.  Add 1 or 2 tsp of water to get a smooth texture and also to avoid the caramel from burning.

Pour the caramel evenly in the molds and set aside for 10 minutes.

For Custard/Pudding:

Beat the eggs, sugar and vanilla extract until sugar is dissolved.

Add the mixture to the warm milk and stir continuously mixed well.

Strain the custard mixture.

Pour the custard into the mold.  I used silicon molds but you can use any other molds or containers.

Place the molds over a plate in the cooker.

Steam for 10 to 12 minutes.

Test the center with a knife, if it comes out clean then the pudding is done else continue to cook for few more minutes.

Allow the pudding/custard to cool down.

To serve keep the serving plate over the mold.  Gently turn the mold and plate upside down and tap to unmold.

Carmel custard/pudding can be served chilled or warm.
