    Vrat ka fruit custard | falahari fruit custard

    Vrat ka fruit custard or fruit custard prepared for fasting is a recipe which makes me go wow! Fasting in Indian culture requires us to follow a certain diet that is eggless, gluten free and grain free. After making this recipe, I am sure I am not buying corn flour powder separately. After making apple kheer , we wanted to use the same technique to make a good eggless custard. It turned out better than we expected!

    How to make fruit custard?

    We whisk eggs, sugar and cornstarch with milk to make a custard in the west. Cook it on low medium heat in a large saucepan. Later it is served as is or as fillings in buns, tarts, donuts and cannoli. The Indian fruit custard recipe is eggless. We add 2 tablespoon of custard powder with some milk in a bowl to make a slurry. Later, we add this slurry to a saucepan of hot milk. Once ready, we serve it hot or cold. Some people like to serve warm custard with cake. (Absolutely delicious!). Most people serve it cold as a dessert by adding some seasonal fruits to it.

    can we eat fruit custard in fast?

    Traditional custard recipe cannot be eaten during fasting period as we tend to eat gluten-free then. Below is a recipe which can be eaten during Hindu fasting period. When fasting, we can make delicious dishes such as sweet potato kheer, ghiya kheer, sabakki payasa/sabudana kheer and apple kheer Check out this top 10 list of fasting recipes here. Get creative and make dry fruit modak, Strawberry modak, anjeer roll, and gluten free gulab jamun.

    Variations and Substitutions

    Rajgira /Amaranth flour has a slight aftertaste when you make vrat ka fruit custard. Sabudana /tapioca flour is more neutral. You may use either of them. If you are particular, you may add teaspoon of cardamom powder or few drops of organic vanilla extract (not commercial essence while making for vrat).

    Traditional custard recipe is made with egg yolks while vegan custard recipe is an eggless dairy free recipe but has cornflour in it.

    Top tip

    If you want to serve custard after some time, store the chopped fruit and custard mix separately. Once you add citrus fruits to the custard, it must be served immediately. If you keep it for long, it will release water later and changes consistency.

    Storage

    Store it in refrigerator for 2-3 days.

    FAQ

    Why is my fruit custard bitter?

    If you add citrus fruits and leave custard for a long time, it may turn bitter. Best to add citrus fruits just before you serve.

    Can fruit custard eat next day?

    Yes, it stays good for 1-2 days. However, bananas might get discolored. If you intend to eat fruit custard later, add fresh fruit when you serve.

    Can you reheat custard the next day?

    You can reheat plain custard in microwave for 30 seconds, stirring once and reheat until it reaches your desired temperature. You can also heat it on stove on a low medium temperature.
