Ingredients used in above meals. To make the custard I used 2 tbs of custard powder, 1 tbs sugar, 1 cup of carnation milk and 1 cup of water. Served with tinned lychees ( should have gone with the apricots in pic) To make the egg you need to use 1 tbs of egg powder to 3 of water. This makes one egg so for two adults and a small child we used 5 tbs of egg powder to 15 tbs of water. Chop some tomato and capsicum through add plenty of salt and pepper (we cheated a bit and added some cheese you could try Parmesan as it stores for a while). When scrambling the egg don't over scramble or it will turn out terrible. Serve with heated beans and some rice cakes smeared with tinned butter. it wasn't too bad a meal but the egg takes some getting used too. Attachments:

Where do you find the egg powder? Heard rumours of them being in supermarkets in the egg shaped container but can never find it?

just a thought, might be handy for you to get practice in making real custard/englaise, from eggs, yolks, cream, milk and sugar! or baked custard (omg i looooove baked custard!) i was taught from a young age cooking this, more by sight than anything, 6 eggs to a litre of milk, like a 1/2 cup, or 3/4 of a cup? i will have to experiment to find the exact measurement, sorry, and a good dash of vanilla extract, or a 1/2 tsp of vanilla paste mmm-mmmmm! lovely if you add some left over rice or fruit bread to it too! for a boiled custard, i am unsure of quantities, but know that its severely overblown as fiddly. the biggest thing is to ensure youre not adding the milk to the egg too hot and that the water doesnt touch the bottom of the double boiler or you will end up with sweet scrambled eggs its not *that* hard. same with strudel, waaaay exaggerated, and pies, such simple yet delicious foods, and not that many people know how to make simple, healthy foods for their families anymore thank goodness my mum was a homesteader, and learned so much cooking from my nan, which i learned some of (would have learned more if i hadnt left home so young :/ ), but honestly, it angers me at how dependent people have become on pre-made everything. >:C
