Mango custard recipe
Ingredients
- 1 and 1/2 cups full fat cream milk
- 1 tbsp custard powder (plain)
- 3 tbsp sugar
- 1/2 cup mango pulp
- 2 tsp nuts or tutti frutti (to garnish)
Instructions
- Chop mangoes roughly.Take it in a blender and make a puree without adding water.Measure and keep aside.
- Reserve a tbsp of milk then boil milk for 5mins until its bubbles up nicely.Simmer and then add sugar.Mix well.
- To a tbsp of milk add custard powder, mix well to form a runny paste without any lumps.Add this to simmering milk.
- Keep cooking ,slowly it will get thick.
- Cook in low flame and keep mixing so that there are no lumps. At one stage the custard will nicely form a thick coating, it will coat the laddle.
- Now add mango pulp to it.
- Mix well and cook for 2 mins until everything is combined well. Do not cook for more time after mango pulp is added else it will start to split.
- Now take your serving bowls.I used my ramekins.Spoon the custard into the bowls.
- Close with lid and refrigerate for atleast 30 mins for the custard to set well.While serving sprinkle tutti frutti and serve chilled.
Notes
- Do not cook more after the mango pulp is added.
- Make the custard thick else it will be goey and will not get set.
- You can even use mango flavoured custard powder.But I used plain custard powder only.
- You can garnish with chopped mangoes or chopped nuts too.
- If you don't have a lid then wrap with foil and chill it.
