Notes
- I like my custard to be pouring consistency . However if you like it to be more tick , you can increase the powder quantity .
- You can use any flavor custard powder . usually vanilla flavor is preferred .
- You can add any fruits of your choice . If you don't have mixed fruits .. you can still make it with either apple or banana.
- Always add fruit while serving to the serving bowl only . if you want you can add some raisins too .
- Avoid citrus fruits and melons.
- You can omit sugar and make your custard more healthy by adding honey .
