2. In a bowl, add the custard powder & to it add 4 tbsp boiled milk(from the pan).

3. Stir it well & make a lump free fine paste out of it.

4. Add the paste to the milk little at a time & keep stirring it continuously for about 6 minutes on a low flame & then turn off the gas. You need to stay near the gas & stir continuously otherwise the paste will form lumps in the milk. 

5. Allow the custard to cool & then refrigerate it for an hour. The custard further thickens on cooling.
