Raspberry Custard with cut fruits!


  • Prep Time: 5 minutes
  • Cooking Time: 30 minutes
I often experience pangs for a certain kind of food, ranging from sweet to savory. And then I go about taking care of that need :) So last week I was in much need of satiating my sweet-tooth. Also there were a few guests coming over for dinner that same night, so I thought of a very simple and yet delicious way of going about it.
To begin, I used some flavored Custard powder that I had with me. It was Raspberry flavor, I made a paste of 2 Tablespoons of the same with 1/4 cup of milk, so that the lumps dissolved in the milk completely.
Next I boiled the remaining of the milk from a 500 ml container, added 3 heaped Tablespoons of Sugar stirring continuously to dissolve the same and to reduce the  water content to make it condensed as possible.

After 12- 15 mins of stirring, add the paste of the Custard powder and stir to completely dissolve the contents. Ensure that the water content reduces sufficiently. Turn of the heat and let it cool. Then refrigerate for a couple of hours.
To this, add cut fruits of your choice. Grapes, Apples, Pears even Mangoes taste great with this. I had added Apples and Pears on that day, then again refrigerated it, you can serve it immediately after adding the fruits.

Ingredients (Raspberry Custard with cut fruits): Serves 4-5
  • Milk- 500 ml
  • Custard powder(Raspberry flavor)- 2 Tablespoons
  • Sugar- 3 Tablespoons
  • Apple- optional (any fruits which complements would do)
  • Pear

At Jamjar Diner's on Friendship's Day

We visited Jamjar Diner's on the first Sunday of August, also known as the Friendships day, well whatever it is called we just need a reason to meet our friends. Due to it's increasing popularity the place was packed with guests that day. But we didnt budge either, since we had zeroed in on the location beforehand. We chose to wait our turn for about 20 minutes.  There happened to be about a small area in the bar section next to the big black telephone.  We ordered our craft beer of Gateway Brewery whilst we waited. I ordered for a White Zen while my partner went with a Doppelganger . He is already a huge fan of their beer. The drink was very refreshing, and I absolutely adored mine.  White Zen of Gateway Brewery at Jamjar Doppelganger of Gateway Brewery at Jamjar There was a huge turn up on that day,as it was a weekend. Friends and a lot of families were having a good time, while we were counting the minutes. Finally we got a place to sit up...

Day trip to Pompei from Rome!

Italy for travelers is like a  treasure trove! There is so much to see and absorb that time falls short. Southern Italy is known for it’s beauty- the Amalfi coast , Naples and the Island of Capri are gorgeous and cannot be missed. And in the heart of all of this, lies the 2000 year old ruins of a city named Pompei. Of course we have all heard of Pompei, of the thriving Roman city of ancient times which succumbed to the volcanic eruption of Mt. Vesuvius in the 79 A.D. and the city with it’s people were buried under ash and rock. This allowed for an exceptional preservation. Although the excavations are still underway, what we get to see are marvels in architecture and art. For a traveler who has planned a few days in southern Italy, Pompei would be easily accessible. All you need to do is reach the Circumvesuviana (which is a circular train line) that runs around Naples to Sorrento. It will take you there. On the other hand for travelers (like us) who have largely planne...

Stuffed Bagel with Chicken Teriyaki

This is a double whammy of a dish. It is simply my take on a stuffed Bagel , one could stuff it with their desired kind of ingredients. I for one love the sesame crusted Bagels, to go with my Chicken Teriyaki . It is quite a simple dish, yet full of flavor and serves as a heavy snack.                                           Stuffed Bagel ready to be eaten! A good Teriyaki sauce gives grilled chicken a rich auburn color. Our homemade version includes just the right amount of ginger to give it an equally appealing taste. While you can also use boneless breasts for this recipe, boneless thighs stay moister during grilling.
