First custard Sauce made in TMX

[droverjess]

Custard sauce
Makes half a pint / 300ml

300 ml milk
2 level T cornflour
25g sugar
1 egg
Few drops vanilla essence or use vanilla sugar.


if Australian tablespoons are larger it may come out too thick. Suggest try and see.

Put milk and cornflour into  
6 mins / 90 / speed 4

Add beaten egg and sugar, and mix til all blended. I think I did speed 4 or 5 for 20 secs but can't remember. It was very good with a rhubarb sponge.
Serve immediately or pour in jug and keep warm.

Anyone can tweak it into   speak for me if I am not quite right. I've made this for 30 yrs but only once in  
Only made this quantity. If doubled, might need longer time haven't tried that yet.

Uni suggests add lemon zest for more flavour. It has good reviews further on.

hillbilly - Thank you so much Droverjess. I searched for custard, came up with your post and it was made and in a bowl in ten minutes! I made it exactly as directed, Australian tablespoons are fine, flavour beautiful. This is my custard recipe forever!!

JD - DJ I made this tonight and because every custard I've made in the TMX all the ingredients go in together, I gaily went ahead and did the same then read the recipe. However, it worked perfectly and makes enough for 2 really good servings. So what I did again, throw everything into the bowl and cook for 6 mins/90o/speed 4 and it's a perfect pouring consistency. Thank you for your recipe.

Uni - I completely misread the method like I always do, all good in the end. Thanks. I did the same when I made it JD. For double recipe I cooked for 8 mins , perfect.

Greyhoundmum - day 2 of owning TMX for me and I have had the lemon custard twice, it is so easy and yum.

This sounds really good DJ I'll try it next time we have custard instead of the EDC recipe

[droverjess]

Wow thanks hillbilly.... Glad to help. It was the first TMX conversion I posted!

[judydawn]

Yay for DJ.  I want to make some custard over the next couple of days to serve over pudding so I'll try yours DJ.

[JuliaBalbilla]

I will try this too, DJ.  Just for your info Australian tbsps are 4 tsps / 20mls, so therefore larger than ours.  However when following recipes by Delia Smith, she uses Australian tbsps  which is rather odd (cannot remember where I read that now) ....

Thanks to JB too for more tablespoon info.

Does this have sufficient flavour to use over a steamed pudding?  I usually make one with more eggs but wouldn't mind giving this a go.
