Make Custard with Custard Powder

I love dryfuits so I keep adding them in cakes, desserts, sweets, pudding Or custards. I am a crazy person and I love being one. The best part was I just handed a bowl of custard to my hubby he ate all of them and really loved it. He had a heavy dinner else he might have eaten one more bowl. today I made potato-french bean vegetable with pooris and brinjal fry. I had my dinner at 7.30 much before as I just can’t resist to eat pooris they are my favorite. There are very few food items in this world which aren’t my favorite.

Now I just don’t like hot food I also love to eat cold stuff like kulfis, icecream, faloodas and custard during winter. Guess just another excuse from a foodie.

    When I lived with my parents growing up we often had custard made from custard powder because it was so easy and I always loved it. But I haven’t had it in years. You have made it seem inviting all over again and those photos are lovely.
