Servings 500 ml
Ingredients
- 25 g (2 ½ Tbsp) cornflour (cornstarch)
- 300 ml (1 ¼ cups) non-dairy milk (unsweetened soy is best)
- 200 ml (½ + ⅓ cup) non-dairy cream (I like Elmlea Plant double)
- 50 g (¼ cup) caster or granulated sugar (can use more or less to taste)
- 3 teaspoon vanilla extract
- a pinch of turmeric (optional)
Instructions
- Place the cornflour in a saucepan and add about 3 tablespoon of the milk, stir to form a smooth paste then gradually stir in the rest of the milk.
- Whisk in the cream, sugar, vanilla and a small pinch of turmeric if using.
- Place the pan over a medium-low heat and stir constantly until the custard comes up to a simmer and thickens.
- Remove the pan from the heat and serve straight away. You can add more vanilla and sugar to taste.
- If not serving immediately, pour the custard into a bowl and cover with greaseproof paper or clingfilm directly on the surface to prevent a skin from forming.
