Kulfi

Kulfi is one of the kid’s favorite street foods. During my school days for vacation, we use to visit our grand parents place, there will be 12- 15 kids, we use to call Ice cream person and stop him in front of our house for half an hour. Hope you can imagine in a small village if he sells a lot in short time what will happen he use to come every day and ring the bell. Even though it’s not Kulfi, when I planned to make this kulfi, my kid’s behavior remained me those wonderful days.

This is my last post for this month Blogging Marathon; I ended up last two weeks with a dessert thought of doing the same for this week too. There comes Kulfi idea, Kulfi must be served semi frozen and not soft like ice cream.

Ingredients:

Milk	4 cups
Sugar	½ cup
Crushed almonds	1 ½ Tbsp
Pista crushed	1 ½ Tbsp
Heavy cream	½ cup
Rose water	¼ tsp
Cardamom powder	¼ tsp
Yields: 8-10

 

Directions:

1. Bring milk to boil in a heavy bottomed vessel, when it’s reduced to 3 cups.
2. Put sugar in a bowl add ½ cup of hot milk and stir until smooth. Add this mixture to boiling milk.
3. Continue to cook on low flame until thick and creamy or until it’s reduced to 1 ½ cups.
4. Add the crushed nuts and boil for 1 minute. Remove from heat and allow to cool completely.
5. Whip the cream in a large bowl until smooth and thick but not stiff, then mix the cream, rose water, cardamom powder to the reduced milk.
6. Pour into cone shaped container or kulfi molds; freeze for 10 hours or until set.
7. To serve, hold the cones under tape water for couple minutes remove the lid and run a sharp knife around the edges and slip out the kulfi gentle.
