This simple pudding can be served on it's own or used in making a trifle or in layering any other dessert.

INGREDIENTS

500ml whole milk (or skimmed if you like)
5 tbsp. sugar
2 slightly heaped tbsp. custard powder
pinch of cardamon
drop of vanilla
3-4 tbsp. evaporated milk
nuts for garnishing

INSTRUCTIONS

First, mix the custard powder separately in a small bowl with about 2 tbsp. of milk. Pour the remainder of the 500ml in a pan with the evaporated milk and sugar and bring it to almost boiling point then lower the heat.

Add the cardamon and vanilla followed by the custard mixture and keep stirring until the mixture thickens (for about 2-3 minutes) then turn off the heat. If lumps of custard occur, pass the mixture through a sieve so it smooths out.

Pour into serving bowls and let it cool to room temp, then garnish with nuts and refrigerate until cold. It will thicken more as it cools. Serve!

No, it is just something that helps to make the pudding richer, you can leave it out.

If I want to add condensed milk instead of evaporated milk.how much do I use? Do I have to reduce the sugar.

Use the same amount but reduce the sugar by half. Then give it a taste as it boils and see if you need extra sugar.

would love to try this for my Dad:)
