FRUIT MATTO BY SHOBHA KAMATH

YUMMY DESERT PREPARED BY YOGURT AND READY IN JUST FEW MINUTES... FOR ME THE NAME ITSELF IS CATCHY TO TRY ON!!!


" FRUIT MATTO "

Ingredients:

Hung curds/Thick curds 400 gms
Powdered Sugar 1/3 cup or as per taste
Fresh mixed fruits (chopped) 1 - 3/4 cup
Mixed Dry fruits (chopped) 1/4 cup


Method:

Place the thick/hung curds in a bowl.
Add powdered sugar to it and mix well till the sugar is completely dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
Add chopped mixed fruits and mix again and finally add the chopped dry fruits keeping aside a few pieces of the mixed fruits and dry fruits for garnishing before serving.
Serve chilled.

Notes and Tips :

* In case you do not have thick curds at hand, then use the regular curd by putting it in a muslin cloth and hang it for about 3 hours till most of the water is drained out. Take care to see that it should not be so thick that it is devoid of any moisture.
* While mixing fruits, take care to use only those fruits that do not leave its juices like oranges, sweet lime, water melon etc. In case, you have no option ( as in my case) then add these fruit pieces just before serving so that the dessert does not become watery.
* I used a little less than half a cup of powdered sugar. You may use a little more as per your taste.
I also used raisins which I added towards the end.
* If fruits such as apples and bananas are used then, squeeze a little lime juice over the cut fruits    ( to avoid discolouration) and then add them into the mixture.
