Ingredients
  

Custard

  • 3 eggs
  • 1/2 cup evaporated milk see notes
  • 1/2 cup sugar

Caramel sauce

  • 6 tbsp water
  • 1/2 cup sugar

Instructions
 

Caramel sauce

  • In a sauce pan, add water and sugar for the caramel sauce. Mix well so the sugar dissolves.
  • Turn the heat on medium and heat up the mixture occasionally stirring. Once the sauce starts bubbling, turn off the heat after 15 seconds.
  • Immediately pour the sauce into heat safe bowls or ramekins.
  • Set aside for it to cool.

Pudding

  • Break the eggs in a bowl and beat it lightly.
  • Add sugar and whisk lightly until sugar dissolves.
  • Heat up the evaporated milk in the microwave for 30 secs and gradually pour it into the bowl while whisking.
  • Keep whisking until everything is mixed well but careful not to make the mixture foamy.
  • Using a sieve, sieve the egg mixture into the different heat safe bowls/ramekins and cover with foil.
  • Heat up your pot/steamer and once the water boils, add the caramel pudding bowls and cover the pot with a lid. Let it cook for 15-20 minutes.
  • Once the time is up, turn off the heat and let it stand for another 5 minutes. The custard should be firm to touch. Let it cool in the fridge for at least an hour.
  • To serve, run a blade around the sides and take a serving plate to cover the bowls/ramekins. Flip it over. Tap the bowl a few times and remove it slowly. Enjoy!

Notes

*The evaporated milk should be warm and not hot so it won’t cook the eggs.
*I used brown sugar, white sugar will work too. 
*Don’t cook the sauce for too long or the sugar will burn.

Save and share this nacho recipe. When @abigailfmarquez posted her delicious nacho recipe, I knew I had to make my own version. I have made this for every movie night at home with Mike since then 😋 
Perfect for sharing but I honestly can finish this all on my own! I’m keeping it simple for this one but sometimes I like to add tomatoes, avocado and sour cream.

This Malaysian style soy sauce eggs is one of my favorite easy meals and it’s also a comfort food not just for me but for many Malaysians. I ate this a lot growing up and during my student days. Probably one of the first recipes I learned how to cook!
The sauce is just sweet soy sauce (kicap/kecap manis), light soy sauce and water!

Savory Oatmeal @farahjeats I’m a savory kind o Savory Oatmeal @farahjeats 
I’m a savory kind of girl and have always preferred my oatmeals savory. Some people think it’s weird, I say don’t knock it until you’ve tried it. The best part? You can be creative with this! I’ve added pesto to my oatmeal before and it was delicious.
I also prefer a thicker oatmeal, add more water if you don’t. 
Would you try this or are you sticking to your sweet oatmeal? 😋
