Ingredients

• 4 large eggs
• 2 cups whole milk
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/4 cup sugar (for caramel sauce)
• 2 tablespoons water (for caramel sauce)
• Fresh rosemary sprig (for garnish)

How to Make Steamed Egg Pudding with Caramel Sauce

1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, whole milk, 1/2 cup of sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
2. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean bowl to ensure a silky texture.
3. Prepare a steamer by filling a pot with water and bringing it to a gentle simmer. Place a heatproof bowl or individual ramekins in the steamer basket.
4. Pour the egg mixture into the bowl or ramekins, covering them with foil to prevent condensation from dripping into the pudding.
5. Cover the steamer and steam for about 20-25 minutes, or until the pudding is set but still slightly jiggly in the center. Check doneness by inserting a toothpick; it should come out clean.
6. While the pudding is steaming, prepare the caramel sauce. In a small saucepan, combine 1/4 cup of sugar and 2 tablespoons of water over medium heat. Stir gently until the sugar dissolves.
7. Allow the mixture to boil without stirring until it turns a deep amber color, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat immediately to prevent burning.
8. Let the caramel sauce cool slightly before drizzling it over the steamed egg pudding.
9. Once the pudding is done steaming, remove it from the steamer and allow it to cool slightly before serving.
10. Garnish with a sprig of fresh rosemary for an aromatic touch.

Tips for the Best Results

• Make sure to strain the egg mixture to avoid any clumps for a smoother texture.
• Keep an eye on the caramel sauce; it can go from perfect to burnt very quickly.
• If using ramekins, adjust steaming time as needed; smaller portions may cook faster.

Easy Variations

• Add a pinch of salt to the caramel sauce for a salted caramel twist.
• Infuse the milk with a cinnamon stick or lemon zest for added flavor.
• Top with fresh fruits like berries or slices of banana for a refreshing contrast.

What to Serve With It

• Fresh berries or a fruit compote for a burst of flavor.
• A dollop of whipped cream for added richness.
• A scoop of vanilla ice cream for an indulgent treat.
