Stages of cooking
-
Set aside 1/4th Cup of Milk. Boil the rest of milk in a pan on medium heat. Stir occasionally to prevent the milk from sticking on the bottom.
-
When the milk comes to a boil, add sugar in it.
-
Add custard powder to the 1/4th cup milk.
-
Mix it well to remove all lumps.
-
Add this mixture slowly to the boiling milk. Keep stirring to ensure it does not burn from the bottom. Boil this for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring continuously.
-
Remove the pan from the heat and stir for another 2 minutes. This will prevent the custard sauce from burning.Let this cool to a room temperature. Then refrigerate for a few hours to chill.

Arrange a layer of fruits in a serving bowl.
