Pineapple Pudding is a modern Indian recipe for a classic Diwali dish of pineapple topped with biscuits served in a milk sauce that's garnished with Nestlé cream and coloured sugar before serving.

Ingredients:

1 pineapple
1 tbsp sugar
250ml (1 cup) milk
5g (2 tbsp) chinagrass (agar-agar)
10 cashew nuts
10 dates, chopped
10 Marie biscuits
250ml (1 cup) whole milk
200ml (1/2 tin) condensed milk
3 tbsp sugar
almonds, to garnish

To Garnish:
200ml Nestlé cream
4 tbsp coloured sugar
almonds, cashew nuts, dried fruit, to garnish

Method:

Peel the pineapple then cut the flesh into small pieces. Combine with the 1 tbsp sugar in a pan and cook over high heat, stirring frequently, until the pineapple releases its excess liquid and all this evaporates away.

Layer the pineapple pieces in a pudding dish. Arrange the Marie biscuits over the top, followed by the dates and cashew nuts.

In the meantime, combine the milk, sugar and condensed milk in a pan. Bring to a boil then take off the heat and allow to cool slightly before beating in the agar-agar until dissolved (if the mixture forms chunks process in a liquidizer until smooth).

Carefully pour the mil mixture over the layers in your pudding dish (be careful not to disturb the layers) then allow to cool before transferring to the refrigerator to cool completely.

Beat together the Nestlé cream and coloured sugar then pour over the pudding and serve garnished with nuts and fruit. Allow to cool and serve.
