Creamy Sitaphal Pudding | Custard Apple Pudding

Description

Kids are generally fussy eaters but they should not be force fed. You can make food interesting by presenting it in different shapes and colours. Make food fun by getting them to participate in the cooking. Kids love to help and once they are part of the process they like to eat as well. I made these Sitaphal or Custard Apple bowls for my grandsons who love fruits and they were quite enchanted with eating a dessert from a fruit bowl. This pudding is quite easy.Just boil milk with cardamom and cinnamon, add condensed milk and Sitaphal pulp, ending with cream and garnish with nuts and your Creamy Sitaphal Pudding | Custard Apple Pudding is ready.

Ingredients

Serves : 5
  • ½ litre Milk


  • 1 small cup condensed milk


  • 2 tbsp Sugar if desired


  • 1 bowl Custard Apple pulp


  • ½ cup cream


  • 4 cardamoms powdered


  • ½ inch cinnamon


  • 4-5 Almonds and Walnuts chopped


Directions

  • First of all, you have to deseed the Custard Apples. Take a strainer and open the custard apple. Remove the flesh gently and keep the Sitaphal shells to be used as bowls. Once the flesh is on the strainer, with the back of a spoon or a hand beater extract the seeds and pick them out. Collect the pulp below and spoon out the seeds. You can blend the pulp to a smooth paste but I let the segments stay as it gives a grainy texture like Kheer instead of Phirni.
  • Boil the milk and let it simmer. Add the cardamom powder and cinnamon stick. Once the milk has reduced almost to half, remove the cinnamon stick. Add the milkmaid and sugar if needed.
  • You can now add the Sitaphal pulp and give a good mix. Turn off the flame and stir in the cream.Your Creamy Sitaphal Pudding is ready. Pour into bowl and set in the fridge for a couple of hours or pour into the Sitaphal Shells and use as individual bowls.
  • Garnish the Creamy Sitaphal Pudding with slivers of almonds and walnuts. Watch the kids clean up their bowls fast.
