Method

1. Boil milk until it reduces to half the quantity. Keep stirring so that it does not get burnt.

2. Add sugar and let it dissolve.

3. Then add all the nuts, cardamom powder and cook for 3-4 minutes.

4. After it cools, add fresh cream and saffron. Mix well.

5. Pour it into kulfi moulds and freeze. It will take 6-7 hours to set.

If you do not have kulfi moulds, freeze it in an aluminium box.

If you do not want to use cream, then follow this method

Mix 2 1/2 tsp of corn flour in a little water. Add this after adding nuts ( step -3) and cook for a few minutes or until it starts thickening. Remove from flame, cool and pour it into kulfi moulds and freeze.

Run water (room temperature) around the outside of the mold for a few seconds to remove kulfi from kulfi moulds. Enjoy!!

Meet you all again with more interesting recipes, until then it is bye from Padhu of Padhuskitchen.com
