Milk Pudding Recipe

Milk Pudding Recipe


The vanilla flavored milk pudding made with cornstarch and egg is soft and smooth. Use of butter in this recipe makes it yummier while giving it a silky smooth texture which simply glides in your palate.
Milk Pudding
Preparation Time: 5 minutes
Cooking Time: 10 minutes
Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients:
1 cup Milk
2 tablespoons Cornstarch
1 medium Egg, slightly beaten
1 tablespoon Sugar (or to taste)
1 tablespoon Unsalted Butter, melted
1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
Blanched Almonds and Pistachios, for garnishing (optional)
Directions:
  1. Whisk together cornstarch and sugar in a small size saucepan.
  2. Stir in milk gradually to avoid lumps.
  3. Cook over medium heat until bubbles start to appear on surface (approx 1-2 minutes). Stir constantly in between.
  4. Pour half of hot mixture in a bowl and add the beaten egg in it. Beat it until smooth.
  5. Add prepared egg mixture in a saucepan having other half milk-cornstarch mix and cook on medium heat until it thickens. Stir constantly to prevent sticking. Check if it evenly coats the back of the spoon. If it does, then turn off heat otherwise cook it for some more time.
  6. Takeaway saucepan from heat and stir in butter and vanilla extract.
  7. Pour it into two individual serving bowls and let it cool at room temperature.
  8. For warm milk pudding, proceed to garnishing. To serve it chilled, place it in a refrigerator for couple of hours.
  9. Garnish warm or chilled pudding with blanched almonds and pistachio nuts and serve.
Tips and Variations:
  • In step-2 above, add milk slowly and keep stirring continuously to prevent formation of lumps.
  • Beating egg and milk-cornstarch mixture is an important step to achieve the desired creamy and silky texture. Beat it thoroughly until there are no lumps or grains.
  • Add green ground cardamom for nice flavorful variation.
  • Experiment with the garnishing; garnish it with chopped dry fruits and caramel topping instead of chocolate sauce for sweet and creamy caramel taste.
Taste: Sweet
Serving Ideas: This easy to make sweet delight will always satisfy your sweet cravings at anytime of the day. Serve it as a dessert.

Veg Momos recipe

Veg Momos recipe


Prep Time10 mins    |  Cook time: 15 mins    |  Makes12



Ingredients

All purpose flour/ maida 3/4 cup 
Water As needed 
Salt 3/4 tsp 
Oil 2 tsp 

For stuffing

Finely chopped cabbage1 cup
Finely chopped Carrot1/4 cup
Finely chopped garlic1 tblsp
Spring onion4 –5 sprigs
sugar1/4 tsp
Pepper (black)1/2 tsp
Soya sauce1 tsp
Salt1/2 tsp
Oil1 tblsp

 

Method

  1. Mix flour, salt and oil  in a bowl and add water to make a smooth pliable dough. Just like our poori dough. Keep aside covered.
  2. Heat a pan with oil, add garlic, and finely chopped white part of the spring onion. Give a stir in high flame. Add the chopped veggies, sugar and fry in high flame for a minute.
  3. Add salt, pepper, soy sauce and mix well. Lastly add finely chopped green part of the spring onion and mix for a minute in medium flame. Switch off and keep aside.
  4. I rolled the dough into a big disc and used a big lid to cut into smaller discs. After that I again roll to make it more thin. Keep some stuffing we prepared in the middle.
  5. Fold it to make momo shapes.
  6. Steam it in a steamer spaced properly, for 5 minutes.

Notes


    Adding oil in the  dough gives softer outer layer.
