2.  Beat the 3 large eggs. (You can also use 4 small eggs).
3.  Add flour, milk and a pinch of salt and mix well.
4.  Put a teaspoon of oil in each hole of your muffin pan. (You can also put only 1/2 teaspoon in each hole according to your preference.)
5.  Heat the pan with oil in the oven for about 10 to 15 minutes or until oil is boiling.  (Be very careful with the hot oil!)
6.  After heating the pan with oil, take it out from the oven.
7.  Carefully pour your mixture in each hole of the muffin pan (with boiling oil at the bottom).
8.  Place the pan again in the oven.
9.  Bake from 20 to 30 minutes or until you see your pudding rise and turn into a golden brown color.
10.  Take out the pan from the oven and let it cool before serving.

Note: Instead of 1 cup of milk, you can also use just 1 cup of water. Using water instead of milk will usually result in a fluffier and crispier pudding.
