Sift 2.5 cups of self-raising flour into a bowl.

Add 1 cup of sugar and a pinch of salt to the flour and mix together.

Add 250 grams of soft melted butter and 2 to 3 egg yolks to the mixture and gently mix until combined.

Transfer the mixture to a buttered oven tray and pat it down.

Bake in the oven at 180 degrees Celsius (380 degrees Fahrenheit) for 30 minutes until golden brown.

In a pot, combine 4 cups of water, the can of fruit salad, and 1 cup of sugar and bring to a boil.

In a bowl, mix 2 cups of milk with 1.5 cups of custard powder until fully dissolved.

Once the fruit salad mixture is boiling, add the milk and custard mixture to it and stir until the custard thickens.

Allow the custard filling to cool down after it has thickened.

Once the base is baked and cooled, pour the cooled custard filling over the base.

Allow the pie to set for about an hour.

In a bowl, add the whipped cream and 3 tablespoons of sugar and whip until thickened using an electric blender.

Spread the whipped cream on top of the cooled custard filling, filling in all gaps.

Prepare the fruit salad by draining the syrup using paper towels before adding it on top of the whipped cream.
