We are making a popular milk dessert in Turkey. Turkish Milk Pudding With Caramel Sauce. Traditionally we have a pudding with real chicken breast in it. It is used to give its oozing texture rather than taste. But in this fake version, we get similar silky consistency and flavor without using chicken breast, and nowadays this is the recipe used to make this pudding.

How To Make Fake Chicken Breast Milk Pudding
- In a medium-size pan add butter or margarine and melt. Add flour and stir continuously on medium heat until it has a very light brown color and nutty taste for about 4-5 minutes (watch the video)
- Pour the milk over while whisking and being careful with the steam. Continue to whisk and cook until the “tavuk göğsü muhallebi”, the pudding thickens.
- Add vanilla powder or extract and turn off the heat. Preferably with a handheld mixer or with a wire whisk, whisk for about 5 minutes.
- pour 1/2 cup water in a 20X28cm rectangular or similar size deep pan and swirl to get the water all over and pour back. This will help the pudding not to stick to the pan. Pour the milk pudding, spread evenly and let it cool in the refrigerator.
Make The Simple Caramel Sauce:
- For the thickening mix: 1+ 1/2 tbsp cornstarch
- 3/4 cup water
- For the caramel sauce:
- 1/2 + 1 tbsp cup sugar
- 1/3 cup water
- Mix the water and cornstarch in a medium-size bowl and set aside
- In a heavy bottom dry saucepan add sugar and melt without stirring on medium heat until it has a caramel color. Careful not to burn it.
- Carefully add water from the side so steam doesn’t burn your hand. It will first get hardened then will melt again. After it is completely melted gradually add cornstarch water mixture and stir. Cook until it is shiny and thickened. You can add a bit more water if it is too thick.
- While it is still hot pour over the milk pudding and spread. Let it cool completely.
How To Serve
Cut the fake chicken breast pudding, sprinkle chopped hazelnuts if you like, and serve cold.
Hi Lovely presentation and amazing desserts
Did try the milk pudding . But after it set , it was more like a thick paste. Did not come out clean like a piece of cake.
Where do you think I went wrong . What should I keep in mind to get a clean piece. Waiting to try it again.
The taste was awsum !!
Hi!
you might scale the flour heaped, too much. So it thickened too much. ın such case you can add more milk to lighten the pudding. It should be thinner then the final result since it will thicken more when cools down. By the way sorry for the late reply.
