Crunchy Delight

Puddings are something that we can crave for in any climate; whether in a hot sunny day or a cold morning, I just love them at anytime of the day. They  add a pleasant smile to our face especially my kiddos  This pudding is easy to make; nothing to bake or to cook except pineapple; no gelatine or chinagrass used.

I did publish one Dry fruits and pineapple pudding before. This is an entirely different one.

This recipe is of ma aunt Hairunnisa Ummer (Hairuaama).. She is an expert in trying out different puddings. This is now prepared & clicked by Haseeba, my younger sis.

Ingredients:

Pineapple 1
Pomegranate seeds 1
Apple 1 (optional) or any other fruits
Custard (recipe ahead) for 500ml of milk
Dream whip/whipping cream 2
Marie biscuits
Sugar 3 tbsp + used for custard

Method:



1.Cut the pineapple into small pieces.

2.Beat Dreamwhip powder according to the package instructions. If you don't have dreamwhip, whip the fresh cream(whipping cream)(250ml) until soft peaks form along with enough sugar and a tsp of vanilla essence.

3.Prepare custard using custard powder according to package instructions. No need to set before layering.


4.Heat 3 tbsp of sugar with pineapple in high flame till all the water disappears. Stir the pineapple in between. Let it cool.

5.Layer these pineapples in a pudding tray along with the pomegranate seeds. You can add apple or any other fruits according to your taste too.


6.Now, take half of the whipped cream ,take spoonfuls of cream and add it here and there. No need to layer it equally or evenly... Do the same with custard also. Take half of that and pour it here and there.


7.Layer the biscuits (broken into pieces) above this.


8.Now layer again with remaining custard and cream. This time, layer it evenly. First custard and then cream.


9.Garnish with almonds and pistachios and refrigerate it at-least for 4 hours. Serve chilled.


***The measure of dreamwhip,biscuits or custard varies according to the pudding dish used .
