Fruit Custard / Desserts
Friday, July 19, 2013
Custard is one of the simple and easy dessert. Fruit Custard is made with any flavored custard powder. Custard powder is nothing but a mixture of corn starch, flavoring and natural coloring. This is one of the desserts that I have been having since childhood. I love having custard mixed with mango pulp. If there are sudden guests at your place and you want to make a simple yet mouthwatering dessert then this is perfect. For the beginners in cooking this is a best dessert recipe to impress people.
Ingredients:
Vanilla flovored custard powder |
1 & 1/2 Tbsp |
| Milk | 1 & 1/2 Cups |
| Sugar | 1/2 cup |
| Cool Whip | 1/2 cup |
| Fruits | As you preffer |
Method:
First take 1/4th cup of milk in a small bowl and add 1&1/2 tablespoon of vanilla custard power to it. Mix well until it dissolves completely without any lumps. Now in a pan add 1&1/4 cups of milk and 1/2 cup sugar. Heat the milk and sugar on medium to low flame and keep stirring continuously.
Once the sugar is melted and the milk starts to boil add the custard mixture to it.
Once you add the custard mixture to the milk keep stirring continuously. Make sure the heat is on low because it tends to stick to the bottom of the pan. Stir until the mixture thickens.
After its done transfer it to a bowl and let it cool down completely. (To cool it faster take ice in a larger bowl and place this bowl in it and keep stirring). Once it's completely cool enough add some cool whip to it and mix well until the whip blends into it.
Now add fruits of your preference and mix well. Transfer it into the serving bowl and serve it cold.
Tips:
- Do not add the custard powder directly into the hot milk.
- Make sure the whole preparation is done on low to medium heat.
- Let the custard cool down completely before you add whipping cream and fruits to it.
- You can omit the whipping cream if desired.
- Do not add watermelons, cantaloupes and papayas to it because it tends to leave water.
- You can refrigerate the custard but make sure that the bananas are not added.
