Custard Fruit Salad


Fruit custard is one of the easiest dessert. It is loaded with the goodness of milk and fruits and is yummy. This is a good way to include fruits in your diet. Even a beginner in cooking can prepare this dish easily. It's hard to get this wrong :)



Ingredients:


 Milk - 1/2 liter
Vanilla flavored custard Powder - 3 heaped tablespoon
Sugar - 2 tbsp
Mixed fruits chopped - 1/2 cup

Procedure:


Mix 3 tbsp custard powder with 5 tbsp of warm milk to make a smooth paste with any lumps. The custard paste is now ready. Custard powder is available in various flavors. I have used Vanilla flavored custard powder in this dish. You can used any flavor of your choice instead.

Boil the milk and add sugar to it. If you have a sweet tooth, you can increase the amount of sugar.

Now add the custard paste to milk and keep stirring continuously on low flame till the mixture thickens.
It is important to keep the flame low and stir continuously. Otherwise the mixture may burn.

Switch off the flame once the mixture thickens and let it cool to room temperature. When it cools, refrigerate it. The mixture will become more thick as it cools.

Cut the fruits of your choice. You can use any seasonal fruits for this dish. Mango, Banana, Dates, Grapes, Pomegranate, Pineapple, Strawberry, Apple, Musk Melon etc. are some of the options. You can also add dry fruits like Cashew, Raisins, Walnuts, Badam, Pistachios etc.

Arrange the fruits in a bowl and pour the refrigerated custard mixture over it.

Serve chilled. Enjoy !!!
