I wanted to make videos for my friends in Malaysia because a lot of them seem to really appreciate my cooking and are interested and how it's all done. I thought not only would it teach some neat (western) cooking styles but it's good English listening practice and they can share it with their friends. It also opens a forum for everyone to have a discussion about the one thing that brings us all together: FOOD! Yes, food! Food I can only buy and make in Malaysia. So, everyone in Malaysia can make anything I make! And it's going to be healthy (at least 90% of the time--but the occasional holiday cookie recipe may go up!!).
As for the custard cups themselves, I've made these before in America. However, the ingredients had to be modified. These were usually made with instant coffee and a sugar free soy milk. Instant coffee in Malaysia sometimes has sugar in it and a pretty strong taste. As for the soy milk, well, besides water and some teas, everything has a lot of sugar in it. So I modified this recipe and it turned out well. I added a few new things and feel that there's more things to come with this particular recipe in the future. I've listed the ingredients and instructions below. I'm happy to answer any questions or receive any suggestions from anyone (especially on editing videos!).

2 cups milk
2 eggs

2. Combine all ingredients in a mixing apparatus and mix well.
3. Place four ramekins (or ceramic cups) into a 1/2-1 inch deep basin and pour mixture into ramekins.
4. Pour hot water into basin or at least midway up the ramekins.
5. Cook for 45-50 mins. Turn off heat and let set in oven for another 10-15 minutes.
