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.
