This is an interesting and tasty fusion dessert made with custard powder, vermicelli, fruits and nuts.

Vermicelli known as seviyan or semiya is a popular dessert and a must for the festive occasion of Eids. There are various versions of making this dessert but the popular one is sheer khurma and milk based seviyan. Custard-based recipes are also very common across Pakistan and are made for myriad occasions and reasons.

Evidently both desserts have gone into various kind of fusion. One such easy fusion recipe is vermicelli custard with fruits and nuts, known for its creamy and flavoured taste. It is the combination of traditional seviya kheer and fruit custard.

Its pretty easy to put together this dessert. Just roast the nuts, fruits and vermicelli. Boil the milk with vermicelli and sweeten it with either sugar or condensed milk or a combination of both. Add the custard slurry and cook to desired thickness.

The milk consistency gets thick, and it gets creamier when we cool it down. So do not overcook the milk, or you will have difficulty later while eating.

And you can add whatever fruit and nuts you want instead of the ones I used.
