FRUIT CUSTARD l HOW TO MAKE FRUIT CUSTARD l SUMMER DISHES

Fruit custard is a delicious dish which you can served chilled any time.  But during summer season, this is quite filling as well as good since most of the time, we don't want to eat food and drink only cold items and eat ice creams.

This is a easy to prepare dish with minimum ingredients and fruits of your choice.

BANANA JAM l NENDRAN PAZHAM VARATTI

Banana Jam is made with Nendran Pazham (The Banana which is used for making chips in Kerala).  When it is over ripe, you cannot eat as you will not enjoy eating the same.  At that point of time, we either use it for making Mor Kuzhambu or Jam.

I had three Banana left in the fridge so decided to make Jam out of it.  You can serve with Chapati.  Spread it on Chapati like other Jam, roll it and eat it.  You can also make Payasam out of it.

Dill leaves are good for health.  When I tasted it for the first time, I could not bear the smell of it.  But neighbour Rinku had prepared it in such way that I liked it after tasting though the smell was little bit unbearable to me.  However, I started liking it and preparing on my own.  It is also known as Suva, Shepu etc.

Now it is a part of my menu once in a week and I love it and not my family members.

PACHA KADU MANGA l TENDER RAW MANGO CHUTNEY

Pacha Kadu Manga l Tender Raw Mango Chutney is made with Tender Raw mangoes during the season and served with Mild Kootu, Molagootal and rice.  This is also served as a Pachadi during Sadhya. No cooking involved in this except the tempering.

It is like a raita you can say but it is slightly sour in taste.  In order to balance the sour taste of it, you can add more quantity of Coconut but I prefer the sour taste in it.
