    Homemade Caramel Pudding

    What You’ll Need
    For the caramel:

    • ½ cup sugar
    • 2 tablespoons water

    For the pudding:

    • 2 cups milk
    • 3 eggs
    • ½ cup sugar
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
    • A pinch of salt
    • Optional: 2–3 tablespoons condensed milk for extra richness

    How to Make It – Step by Step

    1. Start With the Caramel
    • This is the part that gives the pudding its beautiful golden top.
    • Add sugar and water to a small pan.
    • Heat it gently—don’t stir—until the sugar melts and turns a deep golden color.
    • Quickly pour this caramel into your pudding dish and swirl it around so the base is evenly coated.
    • Set it aside to harden while you prepare the custard.
    1. Prepare the Pudding Mixture
    • In a bowl, whisk the eggs, sugar, vanilla, and salt just until combined.
    • Warm the milk slightly (don’t let it boil).
    • Slowly pour the warm milk into the egg mixture while stirring gently.
    • Strain the mixture to remove any lumps and get that smooth, velvety texture.
    1. Cook the Pudding
    • Pour the custard mixture over the caramel.
    • Cover the dish with foil.
    • Steam on low heat for about 25–30 minutes, or until the pudding sets.
    1. Chill and Serve
    • Let the pudding cool completely.
    • Refrigerate for at least 2–3 hours.
    • Run a knife along the sides and gently flip it onto a plate.
    • The caramel will flow over the top like a beautiful sauce.
