- Blitz until the mixture is completely smooth and well-incorporated.
- Pour the prepared custard mixture carefully into the caramel-lined tin.
- Cover the tin tightly with aluminium foil.
- Place the tin in a bain-marie (water bath) and bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for approximately 1 hour, or until the pudding feels set to the touch.
- Remove from the oven and allow it to cool completely at room temperature before transferring to the fridge.
- Once thoroughly chilled, carefully unmould the pudding onto a serving platter.
