Chilled Lichees in Custard

Whisk egg whites until soft peaks are formed. Place in a sieve and steam over a pan of boiling water until firm. Set aside. In a saucepan, beat the egg yolks and stir in sugar and evaporated milk. Stir over low heat until it becomes a smooth custard. Remove from heat. Place lichees in a serving bowl. Pour the custard over them. Spoon the egg-white foam over the custard. Refrigerate and serve.</
