Hai Friends..As promised yesterday I am delivering you the recipe which I waited so long to post. This is a recipe which is requested by one of my viewers. I actually thought of posting it before itself , but something made me to wait for this special day to post this wonderful recipe..I almost waited for a month to post this :D…
The taste of this depends in the caramel which you make..If you cook the caramel for a long time then this custard will turn bitter..So make the caramel carefully..I have given step by step pictures for you to understand clearly..I know you will surely try this today itself since it is so special..The time when you take the first bite is the melting moment of your heart..It was that good..
So hope you try this out and enjoy your day with your valentine……
Recipe Source: Vahrehvah.com
Ingrediants:
Milk- 500 ml / ½ ltr
Sugar - 50 grams + 3 tblspn for making caramel
Eggs - 3
Vanilla Essence - 1 tblspn
Water - 1 tblspn
Method:
Preheat the oven to 190 Degree C / 375 Degree F.
Start by making the caramel. In a nonstick pan add sugar and 1 tblspn of water and swirl the pan to help it to melt down.
Let the caramel come to a boil allow it to bubble up till it turns golden brown. Don't stir the pan which results in a sticky caramel. Pour this caramel in a baking pan and spread it evenly.
Now whisk eggs, sugar and vanilla till light and fluffy. Add in milk and mix well. Pour this through a sieve and pour it over the caramel.
Now take a bigger pan and fill it half way with water. Place the caramel pan inside that pan and bake it for 45 mins.
Allow it to cool a bit. Put into the fridge for around 3 hours.
Now release the sides with a knife and place a plate over the tin and holding the tin carefully, invert the tin.Now tap the top of the tin carefully and lift it for a lovely caramel custard.
Serve chilled.

It seems, I'm the first one to make a comment. It's a delicious dessert. Here in Spain it's called "natillas", so that if you see a recipe with this name, you'll can see other types of recipes that are also yummmy, yummy.
This is a link of my family recipe and it is in another blog which I don't use at the moment. As you can see, tha name is "sopà" because in the city where I was born we speak another language apart from Spanish.

oh my god i love caramel pudding and i have to try this after seeing the pics of the perfect custard pudding 🙂 yummmy!
najla
i tried today to do it, when it came out of oven it was ok(i mean it was stiff) except some liquid over it, when i kept it cool still the liquid didnt stiff and now at fridge 2hrs but didnt stiff and i think even i wait more will not stiff
Aarthi
@najlanailaja...Putting the custard in the fridge wont make it too stiff..It will be like a soft jelly with a jiggly in it...Press it on the top if it looks like a jelly..They you can bravely invert it...Because caramel custard won't get that stiff like you are expecting. Putting in the fridge makes it to come out properly from the mould...Try it and let me know the results..
Theres
I tried it........
But I burnt the caramel..
No probs.I will try again..
Pattu Raj
I ahd seen this recipe earlier. Wanted to try it out could not!
Today, I am so full of enthu when I read your post with those beautiful photographs.. Wonderfully explained.
Thanks a lot. You are making me try this. I am inspired.
Kulsum
I tried this recipe today and it came out wonderful.. and but I added 80 grams of sugar instead of 50 and lessend the milk to 2 cups and added a pinch of nutmeg! And it was yummilicious!
Thank you for the recipe..!

Hi aarthi,
i've tried the pudding many times,and it was successful..
But,recently,when i made ,it didnt come out as a whole,or it was not full set..
Can u please tell,why it happened so?
Can this happen,if i add more than 1 tb spon vanilla essence to the pudding??
All other steps were correct..
Please reply asap.
Theress
Hai aarthi,
i've tried this many times and got it successfully..
But,recently when i tried ,it didnt come out as a whole,or it was not full set..it's not the problem with the temp or sth..it's the prob with my preparation..
Can u tell why?
Was it bcz i added more vanilla essence..?
Other steps are all correct..
Pls reply asap.
Aarthi
@TheressMay be you must have added more sugar, reduce sugar amount and vanilla. Try baking for a little more time. Allow to set in the fridge for longer time.
Beena.stephy
Good post. very informative. yummy
Sirisha Duvvuru
@Aarthi Aarthi, I love all your recipes.. they turn out perfect. I wanted to know, waht temp do you use while baking. I used 350 and kept it for an hour or more. it still doesnt look baked.
Aarthi
@Sirisha Duvvuru Bake it at 170 degree C for 45 mins. When you take it out it will still jiggly but when u touch the top it will look a little set. Now allow it to cool down then put in fridge for 3 to 4 hours. Now you can invert it and enjoy.

Vani Krishna
Hai aarthi,
Love your blog.. And hats off to your patience and passion for cooking.. ����I tried the recipe and it tasted great but while i inverted the pan, it came out broken.. Is it because I made it in a square pan? Am planning to make it for a party and can I use a 13 in * 9 in pan for this recipe?
Aarthi
@AnonymousSorry there is no substitute for eggs because it is the setting agent in this recipe
Aarthi
@Vani KrishnaI dont recommend doing it in a big pan, instead you can use small bowls or ramekins to make this.
Mrs. Zuhair
Hii there.. I made this and it was yumm!! Just like how my mom makes it..:) The only thing was my pudding was all one color...i added condensed milk instead of sugar.. Could that be the reason? Ur pudding has a lighter color inside thats what i meant...i like that:)
Aarthi
@Mrs. ZuhairYou haven't cooked the caramel till dark, that may be the reason. next time cook it till dark and golden
Mrs. Zuhair
Ok...ya i didnt make it too golden fearing the bitter taste... Will try next time...thanks:)
