For those of you egg custard lovers out there, this recipe is a twist on that basic recipe using whole coconut milk instead of fresh milk. The coconut milk imparts a slightly coconut-y flavor giving Thai custard a hint of Asian flavor. I prefer to use homemade coconut milk, but store-bought works fine too.
I have really been enjoying a bowl of this in the evening lately. It is so full of healthy fats and very satisfying.
Thai Custard Pudding
Suggestion:Â Serve Thai custard for dessert after a dinner of Steak Panang Curry!
The two dishes very much complement each other and work well if your family ever enjoys Asian or Thai night together. It’s so much better than MSG loaded takeout food.

Other than the slight difference in ratio of coconut milk to egg, and eliminating spices, what makes this Thai rather than just regular custard?
