How to make Trifle Pudding
Ingredients needed
Sponge cake
Vanilla custard Powder
Jelly- Raspberry or strawberry flavor (as it looks colorful).
Any fruits of your choice.
Little sugar syrup or sugar water
A glass container or tall glass for serving individually.
MethodFor the custard layer
Milk - 2 1/2 cups
Custard powder - 2 tbsp
Sugar - 4 tbsp
Boil milk, mix custard powder with 2-3 tbsp of warm milk and make a paste.
Simmer and add the custard paste to the boiling milk slowly stirring continuously. After it becomes a little thick, remove from flame.
Cool it and keep it in the refrigerator. Refer my fruit custard recipe for more details.
For the fruits layer
Pineapple, apple, mangoes (ripe but firm), strawberry, seedless grapes or any fruits of your choice but avoid using bananas and oranges as I personally feel that it makes the trifle soggy. Cut the fruits into small pieces and keep it aside.You can keep apples in a cup of water to which a few drops of lemon juice is added to prevent discoloration.
For the jelly layer
Prepare the jelly as per instructions on the pack. After it cools, set it in a tray and refrigerate it. Do not keep it in the freezer.
