Fruits play very important role in our daily diet. They supply most of the essential nutrients, vitamins like A and C required by our body. Apart from raw form fruits can be consumed in many other forms like soups, juices, salads, desserts, pies, can also be cooked and baked. May it be any form the fruits give delectable taste to the recipe. The most common and easy way to indulge with fruits is by making fruits custard. A creamy, milky, sweet and delectable custard when paired with fresh and juicy fruits the result is toothsome. As holy month of Ramadan calls us to spend more time on Ibadat (worship) and when cooking takes backseat a simple, easy, comforting and filling dessert like fruit custard is much liked choice. Yet another simple to indulge recipe for Iftar time.
