Amra Fruit Salad








Having a Fruit custard is relief in these hot summers its a simple, taste, and relatively healthy dessert option that harkens back to an earlier time. Fresh fruits are colour full and full of nutritions. Fresh fruit salad with creamy mango custard recipe is a very delicious dessert with the creamy texture of the custard and crunch of the fruits in between.. it taste best when its chilled. Fruit custard is one of those dessert that i have grown up having along with gajar halwa, fruit custard and ice cream used to take a prime position in the desserts mom would make. And  I have given this custard a mangoeee twist, a twist of adding my favourite Amrakhand.
