Mix Fruits Custard



A very healthy,easy and delicious dessert made with milk and seasonal fruits.There are many ways to make custard and various other ingredients to add. This is just one way to enjoy eating it.Use custard powder of your favourite flavour.We can use dry fruits also . Kids will love this and it is a nice way to include fruits in their diet.
                 Custard will remain fresh for 2 -3 days in the refrigerator,but remember to remove the banana pieces from the leftover custard as they will discolur soon and will give a strong flavour.You may add any seasonal fruit of your choice chikoo,pomegranate pearls,peeled Orange segments,strawberry,raspberry, etc.Don't use water melon. It has so much water .it will give watery flavor.



Ingredients
1/2 lit Full cream  Milk
2 tbsp  Custard powder
1/2 cup Sugar
few saffron
1/2 tsp Cardamom powder
2 cup  Diced mixed fruits (of your choice)
1/2 cup Jelly (optional )
Method :-

 Chop all the fruits and keep aside.






 Boil milk in a pan on high flame once boiled, lower the heat and add sugar(Add sugar according to your taste) and saffron ,Cardamom powder to it.






Take half cup of warm milk add custard powder to it. Mix it very well there should not be a lump .I am using  2 tbsp of vanila custard powder with 3 tbsp of warm milk and make a smooth paste without any lumps .






Slowly pour custard powder in hot milk and keep stirring continuously, otherwise it will burn on bottom.
 Let the milk boil completely till the mixture becomes little thick.






 Remove it from the gas and let it cool once it reaches room temperature, put it in the refrigerator till it's cold.Remember that it will thicken further when it cool down, so cook accordingly.







 Add all the chopped fruits and diced jelly.keep in refrigerator for cooling .








Serve cold in a serving bowl. Garnish with mint leaves or nuts or cherries. fruits Custard is ready to eat !!!!!!
