Custard is one simple dessert that can be whipped up with limited ingredients.  It can be served at room temperature or chilled.

INGREDIENTS

• 1/4^th  cup vanilla custard powder
• 2  ½ cups (625ml) milk
• 2 tablespoons caster sugar
• Fruits of your choice ( here I have used apples,grapes,strawberries, pomegranate seeds)
• Nuts (slivered pistachios and almonds)

•  

METHOD

• Step 1

Combine custard powder and 1/4 cup of the milk in a bowl. Stir until smooth.

• Step 2

Place custard mixture, sugar and add remaining milk in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, stir constantly until custard comes to the boil and thickens. Simmer, stirring for 5 minutes.

Add this prepared custard in a large bowl and place it in the refrigerator to cool completely.

• Step3

Chop apples and strawberries into bite sized pieces.

Cut the grapes into halves.

Just peel the pomegranate to separate the arils.

 Keep in the fridge to cool.

• ·         Step 4

Once the custard has completely cooled down add in the fruits and nuts and Serve chilled.

Aps Notes:

If you want a thick custard add 2 ½ cups of milk if you like your custard semi liquid add ½ cup more milk.

You can use fruits of your choice.

 Happy cooking,
