Fruit custard

Fruit custard is a sweet dessert. It not only satisfied the sweet cravings but also loaded with Vitamin A, C and K with nutrients. The dietary fibre in fruits enhanced digestion. Good choice for a healthy breakfast or even for lunch during fasting times. 

4 cups whole milk

3 tablespoon custard

1 tsp rose water

1 tsp cardamom powder

Chopped fruits - papaya, strawberries, blueberries, grapes & apples (1 cup)

Add 4 cups milk to a thick pan on medium heat. Once it has heated up a little, take out 4 tablespoons milk from the pan into a small bowl. Add in 3 tablespoons custard powder to that milk and mix well without any lumps. Set it aside.

Stir the milk in the pan in between and let it heat and come to a gentle boil. Then lower the heat, add sugar and mix until combined.

Add the custard milk little by little. Whisk continuously. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes until the custard thickens. Remove pan from heat and let it cool down a bit. Add rose water and cardamom powder. Let it cool down. Cover and place in the refrigerator to chill.

Chop all the fruits(apple 1, strawberry 5, blueberries 10, papaya 1) that you are using for the custard and refrigerate. Once chilled, transfer custard to serving bowl and mix  the fruits. Cover and refrigerate the custard for 2 hours after mixing in the fruits for the essence to develop. Serve chilled custard after 2 hours or serve it immediately without refrigerating.
