Fruit Custard


Simple, healthy (sort of) and delicious dessert for a warm summer evening.

Procedure:
* Whole Milk 500ml
* Custard powder 2 tbsp
* Sugar as per taste
* Diced mixed fruits 1 cup
* Jelly 1/2 cup
* Vanilla extract 1 tsp

Procedure:
Boil milk. Once boiled, lower heat and add the sugar.
Mix custard powder in half a cup of cold milk
Slowly pour custard powder in hot milk and keep stirring
Cook till it passes the back of spoon test (take a wooden spoon and dip in the custard, run your finger through the middle of the custard on the back of the spoon, if a clear path is left, the mixture is ready otherwise cook for some more time)
Let it cool outside, once it reaches room temperature, put it in the refrigerator till its cold.
Add the fruits ( i added kiwi, oranges, apples, grapes, blue berries, mango and pineapple) and diced jelly.
Serve cold.

  2. This post made me smile. As a child, I would pick out the fruits and slurp on the custard. I enjoy the combination so much more in later years.

  4. Hello -
    My family's favorite recipe on your site is the simple aloo - and I wanted to ask - can you post more recipes like that...of just everyday simple food?

    It's easy to find recipes for fancier food...but nobody publishes recipe books with the really simple food that housewives make.

    Just a request. Thank you. I really find your site very useful.
