This Parsi custard, Lagan Nu is typically served at weddings. It's a
sophisticated sub-continent dessert that brings together the best of
English and South Asian flavors.
Pre-heat oven to 300?F (150?C). Grease a square baking dish (roughly
8x6") with butter or ghee.
Bring milk to boil in a stockpot. Lower heat and stir in condensed
milk and sugar. Keep stirring on low heat for 15 minutes until the
mixture thickens. Remove any milk residue with a slotted spoon.
Remove from heat and let it cool for roughly 10 to 15 minutes until
it becomes tepid.
In the meantime, in a large bowl whisk the eggs, vanilla extract,
nutmeg, and ground cardamom till foamy.
Once the milk is lukewarm, slowly stir in the egg mixture. Pour the
custard into the baking dish and bake in the oven for roughly 1 hour
until the custard is set.
Allow to cool and place in the fridge for at least 2 hours.
Top with nuts and raisins (if using) before serving.
