What is the best recipe to make custard?

Making custard is the bane of my existence. Lol. I don’t like custard but it’s useful for many dessert so I have to make it whether I like it or not. I usually use instant custard powder, but I am the kind of person that always have to make everything by hand. My common mistakes is the custard too watery, too thick, or congeal terribly. What is your recipe to make custard?
