Time 1h5m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 eggs
1 cup coconut milk
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup palm sugar or 1/2 cup light brown sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
8 ounces crushed pineapple

Steps:

  • Pre heat oven to 350* F.
  • Place eggs, coconut milk, sugar, palm sugar, vanilla and pineapple together in a blender, and puree until smooth.
  • Pour mixture into small greased custard bowls and place on a baking sheet with a rim. Pour hot water in baking sheet so the custard bowls have water 1/3 of the way up their sides.
  • Bake for an hour or until a knife comes out clean.
  • Cool completely and refrigerate until ready to serve. Unmold onto plates and serve cold - I think it would be pretty to serve with fresh fruit and mint as a garnish.

Categories     dessert

Time 1h

Yield 1 (9 by 13-inch) pan

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 1/2 cups mochiko (rice flour)
2 cups sugar
3 teaspoons baking powder
5 eggs
2 cups milk
1 (16-ounce) can coconut milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 stick (1/2 cup) butter, melted
Caramelized Pineapples, recipe follows
1/2 cup butter
3/4 cup dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups fresh pineapple, diced

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a mixing bowl, sift dry ingredients well. Add remaining ingredients except melted butter. Mix until batter is well combined using a whisk. Fold in melted butter and pour into a 9 by 13-inch baking pan. Bake in preheated oven for 45 minutes or until golden brown. Cut into 3-inch squares and serve with Caramelized Pineapple.
  • In a saucepan, melt butter and brown sugar. Add vanilla. Fold in diced pineapple and continue to cook until mixture has thickened.

Tips:

  • Use ripe pineapples: The riper the pineapples, the sweeter and more flavorful the custard will be.
  • Don't overcook the custard: The custard should be cooked until it is just set, but not overcooked. Otherwise, it will become tough and rubbery.
  • Let the custard cool completely before refrigerating: This will help to prevent the custard from curdling.
  • Serve the custard chilled: The custard is best served chilled, as this will help to enhance the flavors.
  • Garnish with fresh pineapple or whipped cream: This will add a touch of elegance and make the custard even more delicious.

Cambodian Pineapple Custard (Num Cream Ma Nor) is a delicious and refreshing dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is also relatively easy to make, making it a great option for busy weeknights. With its sweet and tangy flavor, this custard is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
