I had the same problem -- just tried to make this in the instant pot and what came out was (a) separated, and (b) weirdly rubbery -- almost like cooked eggs. Not like a custard at all. Any suggestions of what could have gone wrong?

I made this from the cookbook last night and loved it. A fair amount of cardamom settled to the bottom, so I think I'll reduce to 1 tsp next time. After releasing pressure, I left it in for the add'l 2 min and the knife still didn't emerge clean (from the center), so I left it in there (with the residual heat)...and got distracted trying to get the kids ready for bed, but 20 min later it was set! This morning the texture was creamier and liquid had seeped out. Overall a keeper! Made in the 3Qt Instant Pot. Thank you!

Sweetended condensed milk comes in 14 oz cans. I used the entire can and the custard is way too sweet. I also had to add 2 minutes of pressure (twice) before the knife came out clean, but after the custard was refrigerated, it was very thick. Next time, I will use half a can of sweetened condensed milk, stick to the 20 minutes of pressure cooking time and keep my fingers crossed that it is delicious and the texture is good.

Before I make this for dinner party tomorrow, want to confirm recipe calls for condensed milk, not SWEETENED condensed milk?

Oh this sounds so delicious! One thing to consider is, not all yogurts labeled "greek yogurt" are created equal. Some brands have different fillers, or are just more liquidy than others. Maybe that could account for a difference in how it sets? Do you remember what brand you used, Urvashi?

I have been wondering what could have gone wrong with yours. I’m still wondering what could have caused this. I may need to replicate it—when I’m not low carbing—ugh. Stubborn 8 lbs I need to lose.
