Break away from the tradition this Diwali and make this gorgeous firni bursting with the velvety sweetness of custard apples. Garnish with slivered nuts and silver foil [varakh] to make a grand statement.
 
Preparation Time: 15 mins
Cooking Time: 25 mins
Chilling Time: 4-5 hours
Serves 4

   1 litre full cream milk

   5 tbsp sugar
   1 1/2 cups sitaphal [custard apple] pulp

Method
Combine rice flour with 1/2 cup of the cold milk and mix to form a smooth paste. Set aside.
