Instructions:
1. Prepare the Custard Mixture:
In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs.
Add sugar to the beaten eggs and mix well until the sugar is dissolved.
Gradually add milk to the egg-sugar mixture, stirring continuously.
Add vanilla extract and mix well.
2. Strain the Mixture:
Strain the custard mixture using a fine mesh strainer to remove any lumps and ensure a smooth texture.
3. Microwave Cooking:
Pour the strained custard mixture into a microwave-safe bowl or individual ramekins.
Microwave the mixture on medium power for 2-3 minutes, stopping to stir every minute. Keep an eye on it to avoid overflowing.
Continue microwaving and stirring until the mixture thickens to a pudding-like consistency. This usually takes about 6-8 minutes in total, but it can vary depending on your microwave’s wattage.
4. Chilling:
Once the pudding has thickened, remove it from the microwave and let it cool for a few minutes.
Refrigerate the pudding for at least 2 hours or until it is completely chilled.
5. Serve:
Once chilled, your egg pudding is ready to be served. You can enjoy it as is or top it with whipped cream, fresh fruit, or a sprinkle of cinnamon for added flavor.
Remember that microwave cooking times can vary, so it’s essential to keep a close eye on the pudding to prevent overcooking. Adjust the cooking time based on your microwave’s wattage and the desired consistency of the pudding.
