Mango custard fruit salad is my newest innovation and I love it as a substitute for the original fruit custard salad.
Mango custard fruit salad |
Ingredients: (makes 8 - 10 servings)
Mango puree - 1 cup
Custard powder - 2 tbsp
milk - 1 cup
condensed milk - 2 tbsp (optional)
powdered sugar or sugar - 4 tbsp (to taste)
mixed fruits - 2 cup
(apple - 1/2 , pear - 1/2, banana - 1, seedless grapes - 10, pomegranate - 1/2 cup, dates - few)
cardamom powder - 3/4 tsp
Method:
Peel the apple, pears, pomegranate. Chop the apple, banana and pear into bite size cubes and keep aside. chop dates, grapes and keep aside. Keep aside in fridge.
Bring milk to boil
Dissolve the custard powder in few tbsp of cold milk and add to the boiled milk. Start heating and cook for 2-3 minutes or till the custard gets thickened. Now add mango puree.
Add required sugar, condensed milk , cardamom powder.
Let cool completely.
Add chopped fruits and pomegranate arils.
Keep refrigerated for 2-3 hours or till chilled.
Mango Fruit custard is ready!
Serving suggestions:
Serve chilled as dessert.
Note:
I am suggesting condensed milk, as we generally have fat-free milk only at home, and adding condensed milk makes it rich.
Instead of fresh fruits, we can use canned fruits too, to save time.
Using a vegetable chopper to chop fruits will minimize the prep time.
This salad can stay fresh for 3 days inside fridge.
