Serves: 8-10

Ingredients:

Mixed Fruits - 1 cup (I used apples, strawberries, bananas, oranges, mangoes, grapes & pears)
Milk - 2 cups
Cashews - 1 tablespoon
Raisin - 1 tablespoon
Cucumber Seeds - 1 tablespoon (optional)
Sugar - 4-5 tablespoons
Condensed milk - 2 tablespoons
Vanilla Flavored Custard Powder - 2 teaspoons
Ice Cream Cups/ Wafer cups - 8-10

Method:

1. Boil 1 1/2 cups of milk.
2. To the remaining 1/2 cup of milk, add custard powder and mix well so that no lumps are formed.
3. Once the milk boils, add the custard-milk mix and stir continuously.
4. The milk will start to thicken. At this point, add sugar and cool it in the refrigerator.
5.  Meanwhile, chop the fruits into small pieces and soak them in about 3-4 tablespoons of milk.
6. Just when you are about to serve, add the fruits, nuts, raisins, cucumber seeds and condensed milk to the custard.
7. Transfer small portions of the fruit custard mix into the ice cream cups and serve immediately when cold!

Tips:

1. You can add any fruit that you want. But naturally, don't add watermelons, cantaloupes or any fruit that has high water content. It will make your custard very watery.
