though this pudding is time consuming it's worth the try as we get most of the ingredients in instant packs and you not only will enjoy making it but will have a lot of appreciations for it's taste and look.

    • 1 finely chopped banana and orange

    so is it that the more custard powder i add, the more tasty or thick the dish will be?

    hmm.. no idea, i made the custard as per the pack instructions with 1/2 litre of milk. Made the pudding at night, but when i thought of having it next day, could not take it with a spoon, the custard was watery :(

    hi Saritha, you might have added more milk while making the custard.if that is so u can always add extra powder to some milk(seperately) and stir into the custard mixture when still on fire.

    you may add canned fruits for your convenience and save time.but i prefer using fresh fruits as its more healthy and adds a lot of colour to the garnish.use as many fruits as you want with your imagination.
