Servings: 12 people
Ingredients
- ¼ cup icing sugar (confectioners sugar)
- 1 cup milk powder
- ½ cup cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon vanilla powder
- ⅛ teaspoon yellow food color powder
Instructions
Make Custard Powder
- Add icing sugar, milk powder, cornstarch, vanilla powder, and yellow food color powder to a medium-size mixing bowl.
- Mix well using a wire whisk or a spoon.
- If the vanilla powder is not available, skip adding it. You can add some vanilla extract while making the custard instead.
- Transfer the powder to a clean and dry glass jar and store it in a cool and dry place.
Make Custard Using The Powder
- To make a warm and creamy custard, heat 1 cup of whole milk in a pan over medium-low heat.
- Stir together 2 tablespoons of custard powder and ¼ cup of chilled milk to make a lump-free mixture. If there are lumps in the mixture, pass it through a fine-mesh strainer.
- Add the vanilla extract and the yellow food color to the bowl if you have not added these two while making the powder. If added, then skip this step.
- Pour the custard powder mixture slowly into the pan with the milk and stir continuously until the custard thickens.
- Remove the pan from heat and cover it using a cling wrap to avoid the formation of a cream layer on top.
- Chill the custard and serve with fresh fruits and jelly.
