UPSIDE DOWN KIWI CUSTARD

When you are participating in a Healthy Food Contest where the theme is Fruit. A list of  fruits are there in front of you, some of which you might have had only in the form of juices, smoothies or just as a simple fruit. But here you have to do some experiment with the fruit of your choice. 

So, here I have chosen Kiwi fruit, which is a favorite one, and tried something different. Here is the experimental Upside down Kiwi Custard recipe.

This is my second entry to to the first week's contest.

5. Raisins and nuts - 1 tsp

Process :

1. Boil the milk, add sugar and custard powder to make simple custard. Keep aside to cool down.
2. Wrap your bowl (deep round shaped or square flat) with transparent food wrap paper. 
3. Peel and cut the kiwi pieces in circles and place them in the dish which is ready already with wrapped paper. Once the custard comes to room temperature, place it in the bowl, spread some nuts and raisins and keep in refrigerator for 4-5 hours.
4. To unmould, carefully place the dessert plate on the top of your dish and, holding tightly, turn the dish upside down. It should come out easily.
