How to make Custard

In a bowl, add 2 egg yolks, 1 tablespoon of castor sugar, and 2 teaspoons of corn flour. Mix until well combined.

In a saucepan over low heat, add 200 mL of whole milk and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Mix until well combined and warmed through.

Ensure the milk is not too hot to avoid scrambling the eggs; it should be at a nice body temperature.

Add the egg yolk mixture to the milk gradually, stirring really well as you add it.

Continue stirring until the mixture thickens up fairly quickly.

If the eggs scramble slightly and you notice little bits, strain the mixture to remove those bits.
