Me and my husband we both are a great fan of sitaphal. Sitaphal is the seasonal fruit.Sitaphal Rabdi (Custard apple rabdi) is a Indian dessert made using fresh sitaphal pulp.It is very popular seasonal sweet recipe. This awesome dish can serve as sweet or desserts.

I had tasted this recipe long time ago in a restaurant in pune. This is the first time I am preparing it at home and the outcome was super delicious and finger- licking.This recipe is the easiest way to impress your family and friends.

It has high calorific value, able to provide sustained energy.
