Good evening everyone. Okay, straight to the point. Custard seems to be one of my favourite meal but I still dont get it right whenever I try to do it myself. Always too watery and tastes really raw.

Someone please help out with the correct method of preparation (with accurate spoon measurements please). Thanks

The measurement depends on the quantity you want, like four teaspoons should be enough for you. Just boil water, just put the custard in a bowl, mix with water, don't make it too watery. When the water is boiled, pour it inside the custard, stir while pouring the water, add sugar and milk and ur custard is ready

I don't know the quantity you like but if you want thick and nice custard, make sure you use very little cold water in mixing the custard powder. For example, for 4 tablespoons of powder, you don't need up to 50ml of water. The hot water you use to mix the custard paste has to be one that is steaming hot, as you're taking the kettle off the cooker or socket, you're pouring it into the custard paste, make sure the water is at boiling point till you're done. Add little hot water, mix and keep adding in little quantity till you get the consistency you desire. Continue mixing till you get the thickness you want.
