Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Raisins

1. Place raisins in warm water for 10 minutes.
2. Drain and set aside.

👉 This makes them soft and juicy in the custard.

Step 2: Heat the Milk

1. Pour milk into a saucepan.
2. Add half of the sugar and heat on medium.
3. Stir occasionally until warm (do not boil).

Step 3: Prepare the Custard Mixture

1. In a bowl, whisk eggs and remaining sugar until smooth.
2. Add cornstarch and mix well until no lumps remain.
3. Slowly pour warm milk into the egg mixture while whisking continuously.

👉 This prevents the eggs from cooking too quickly.

Step 4: Cook Until Thick

1. Return the mixture to the saucepan.
2. Cook on low heat while stirring constantly.
3. Continue until the mixture thickens into a creamy texture.
4. Add vanilla, butter, and optional cream.

Step 5: Add Raisins & Pour

1. Stir in softened raisins.
2. Pour the custard into serving cups or mugs.
3. Smooth the surface.

Step 6: Chill or Steam

Option 1 — Chilled Dessert (Recommended)

• Refrigerate for 3–4 hours until firm and creamy.

Option 2 — Steamed Custard

• Place cups in a steamer.
• Steam for 15–20 minutes until set.
