A New Dessert

During the Easter break, I tried a new dessert. It was a mix between a brown sweet dish called 'Faluda' and Custard. My parents wanted to it something 'Desi', while my siblings were craving for some custard. So I decided to mix the two. The results were great. It gave off a flavour of both Faluda and custard. 
Challenges: Some challenges that i faced were; firstly, the cooking of the spaghetti for faluda was very time consuming compared to the custard. The Custard took less than seven minutes, while the spaghetti took over 20 minutes to boil, and be soft enough. Another challenge that I faced was the cooling process. The Custard took a long time to cool, so that was very time consuming as well. 

Though I am thankful to my mom, who guided me throughout the way. 




This is what a Faluda looks like: 
The spaghetti is mixed with a mixture of milk, evaporated milk, sugar, cardimin. and then it is topped with ice cream, and nuts. 


A custard: 

 We all know what a custard is. : ) 


My recipe in pictures: 

The Spaghetti boiling


The Custard is cooling down

The whip cream is being whipped :)

The custard and the whip cream are being mixed to create a tastier and nice-yellowish mixture. 


A thin layer of custard is placed on the base of the sweet dish tray. 

A layer of heart shaped patties is placed for a nice, crunchy texture. and then another thin layer of custard. 
The Spaghetti is mixed with the custard in a separate bowl 

One layer of crushed pineapple, bananas and of walnuts is added on top. 









Finally, another layer of custard ( with the spaghetti ) is added as a final top layer. 












Final results.
