Caramel Custard (Eggless )

This is a very simple caramel custard recipe.

I am posting it in a jiffy on a dear one's request.

Ingredients:

1. Sugar       3/4 th cup
2. Milk         1/2 Litre
3. Cream      250 ml
4. Vanilla Custard Powder      2 tablespoons

Method:

1.  On a low flame , melt sugar in a sauce pan until completely dissolved, while stirring constantly till it changes colour to slightly caramel (brownish)
2. Remove pan from stove. Add half of the milk i.e; 250 ml. Stir gently with a whisk until homogenized.
3. Bring caramel and milk mixture to a boil  while gently whisking.
4. Dissolve the custard powder to the remaining milk and add to the boiling mixture. 
5. Cook further for 5 minutes on low flame or until custard become thick . ( Its advisable to read the pudding powder packet instructions.)
6. Keep the custard aside to cool down.
7. Mix cream well .
8. Serve chilled.

Alternatively, you can add powdered sugar and vanilla essence to the cream and beat it well. Serve the custard topped with the cream or on the side with a thin wafer biscuit.
