1 tin condensed milk (400gms)
1.5 tins water
6 eggs

1 table spoon sugar (for the caramel)

Method:

• Put all of the above ingredients into a bowl / mixer hopper and whip for a minute.
  
• Make caramel of the sugar in a flat bottomed vessel. 
  
• Try to coat the sides of the vessel too by turning it around with a pair of tongs or pot holders.
• Pour the mixture made in step 1 into the vessel.

  

  Getting ready to steam the pudding

• Steam for 25-30 minutes (or till a knife inserted in the center comes out clean) in a bigger vessel or a pressure cooker on simmer without the whistle. Put about a half inch of water in the larger vessel.
• Make sure you have covered the vessel holding the mixture so that the steam doesn't get in.Take care not to let the steam come on your hand as you open the lids to check whether done. Don't lift the lids up but slide them horizontally.         





How to steam the pudding

• Run a blunt knife in the vessel all round the pudding, overturn a plate on the vessel and turn vessel with plate upside down. Your caramel pudding is ready to be served.
