Lagan Nu Custard - Wedding Custard

It is a must during the Parsi weddings so called the wedding custard.
Ingredients
---------------
155g (5 1/2 oz) caster sugar
710 ml (25 f1 oz) full-fat milk
3 medium eggs
1 tsp vanilla essence
1 tsp rose water or kewra (optional)
8 green cardamoms, seeds only, crushed
1/4 tsp freshly grated nutmeg
15 unblanched almonds, sliced
whipped cream, to serve
Method
------------
In a heavy-based pan, dissolve the sugar in the milk, stirring occasionally, then simmer for half an hour on a low heat until the mixture has reduced by almost half. Leave to cool.
Preheat the oven to 180°C / 350°F / gas mark 4.
In a bowl, whisk the eggs with the vanilla essence, rose water or kewra, if using, cardamoms, and nutmeg. Add to the cooled milk mixture and stir.
Pour into a 15cm (6 inch) flan dish, sprinkle the almonds on top, and bake for 40 minutes or until the top is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and leave to cool.
Refrigerate for at least 40 minutes. Slice and serve with whipped cream.
