Strawberry Custard Dessert

Today comes another recipe, which I planned to post under seasonal foods for BM 27. Strawberry is sitting for more than three days in refrigerator no one is in a mood to eat. When I was thinking to try something interesting, I came across this recipe from Vegbowl. Instead of mango I tried with Strawberries and it turnout well, vanished in minutes.

Ingredients:

Milk	1 cup
Corn starch	1 Tbsp
Sugar	¼ cup
Vanilla extract	1 tsp
Strawberry pure	½ cup

 

Directions:

1. Mix corn starch with ¼ cup of milk. Heat the remaining milk with sugar in a sauce pan, when it starts to boil add the corn milk in slow stream and stir continuously (if not lumps might form).
2. In a stage it might start to bubble and thicken, turn off the stove and add vanilla extract.
3. Allow it to cool completely. Mean while clean the strawberries and blend, strain to remove the seeds and extract the thick pure (don’t add any water).
4. To assemble, drop a tablespoon of custard top it with strawberry pure one tablespoon repeat this until you reach top of the glass. Allow it to set in refrigerator for an hour.

 

Note:

• The mixture should not be runny when you’re turning off and after adding vanilla mixture will be little bit lighten. If you feel it’s runny, again cook for couple minutes.
• After it cools it will thicken so. Keep this in mind when working.
• Instead of corn starch you can use custard powder.
• I added 2 tsp of sugar to my strawberry pure it’s optional. You can leave the strawberry pure in refrigerator for one hour it helps to thicken a little bit.
