Heat a saucepan with milk on medium flame. Bring it to a boil.
Add the custard powder to a bowl. Take around 3 tbsp of milk or water, and mix well with the custard powder without any lumps. Add the custard powder slurry to the milk in a saucepan and combine gently. Whisk continuously so that the custard powder completely blends with the milk.
Next, add sugar and combine.
Keep stirring the custard powder thickens quickly in just 2-3 mins. Switch off the flame and let it cool down.
Once it cools add the chopped assorted cut fruits. Combine and store in the fridge for chilling or serve immediately.
Notes
Use seasonal fresh fruits.I also use chopped nuts and some dry fruits at times.
You can also make the custard over the weekend during the meal prep and store them in airtight boxes.
Mix with fruits and chill for another 2 hours and serve the dessert.
Use any flavored custard powder as you prefer. Popularly used is vanilla-flavored custard powder.It is easily available in supermarkets along with baking supplies.
If you are not able to source custard powder you can easily replace it with Corn flour.
If using corn flour mix them with water or milk and form a slurry without lumps and then add in vanilla extract for the best taste.
