KULFI (INDIAN ICE CREAM WITH NUTS)

Steps:

• Pour the milk into a wide, heavy based sauce pan and bring to boil over high heat, stirring constantly.
• As soon as the milk begins to rise, turn the heat down just to the point to allow the milk to simmer vigorously but without boiling over.
• Add in the cardamom pods.
• Leave the milk to boil and stir the sides of the pan constantly to avoid scalding.
• Whenever a film forms on top of the milk, just stir it in .
• The milk has to reduce to about a third of the original amount, about 750 ml (1 1/4 pints) which will take about 45 minutes.
• When the milk has reduced, remove the cardamom pods and discard them.
• Add in the sugar and almonds, stir and simmer gently for 2-3 minutes.
• Pour the reduced milk into a bowl (which can be put into the freezer) and let it cool completely.
• Add half of the chopped pistachios and stir them in .
• Cover the bowl with an aluminum foil and put it in the freezer.
• (I do not have an ice-cream maker, but if you do, then you can pour the milk into the machine and get it going).
• Meanwhile, put 6 small individual cups or a 900ml ( 1 1/2 pints) pudding basin in the freezer.
• Every 15 minutes or so, remove the ice-cream bowl from the freezer and give the ice-cream a good stir.
• As the ice-cream begins to freeze, it will become harder to stir but when it becomes almost impossible to stir, take out the cups or pudding basin from the freezer and divide the ice-cream between the cups or empty it into the pudding basin.
• Sprinkle the remaining pistachios over the top and cover with aluminum foil sealing them well on the edges.
• Return them back to the freezer to let the ice-cream harden (for at least 4 hours).
• If it's in individual cups, then remove the cups from the freezer 10-15 minutes before you want to serve it to soften slightly.
• If it's made in the pudding basin, you can put it in the fridge 20-30 minutes before serving.
• Remove the ice-cream from the pudding basin by running a sharp knife around the edges of the ice-cream and slip it onto a serving plate (it should slip off easily, if it doesn't then dip the bowl in hot water and try again).
• Cut into 6 slabs and serve.
• Enjoy!

INDIAN ICE CREAM WITH PISTACHIOS: PISTA KULFI

Steps:

• To make the pudding: Place the milk in a large, heavy wok or skillet and bring to a boil over high heat. Continue to boil, stirring, 2 to 3 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring and scraping the bottom and sides of the wok often, until the milk is reduced by at least 3/4, about 45 minutes. You should be left with about 2 cups of condensed milk. (It should have a few lumps.)
• Mix in the sugar, cardamom seeds, ground pistachios and food coloring, if using, and cook, stirring, until the sugar melts and thins down the pudding, and then the pudding thickens again, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Transfer to traditional kulfi molds or disposable 5 1/2-ounce plastic souffle cups. Cover and place in the freezer until completely frozen, at least 4 hours.
• To serve, dip each mold in hot water about 10 seconds, run a knife around the inside of the mold and transfer immediately to a dessert plate. Serve whole or cut into smaller pieces, garnish with chopped pistachios, and serve.

QUICK MANGO KULFI

Steps:

• In a large bowl mix all the ingredients until there are no streaks of color, then pour the mixture into a 9- or 10-inch loaf pan lined with plastic wrap (or individual freezer-safe ramekins). Place in the freezer, and allow to set for at least 10 hours, until frozen. Dip the outside of the pan in warm water, just long enough to release the kulfi. After you've used the plastic wrap to help you unmold neatly, throw it away. Slice and serve the kulfi immediately. If you're using ramekins, allow to sit at room temperature for a few minutes, then serve directly in the bowls.

PISTA KESAR KULFI (PISTACHIO AND SAFFRON KULFI)

Steps:

• Pour the evaporated milk, cream, and sugar into a saucepan and bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring it fairly frequently to ensure it doesn't stick to the bottom of the pan.
• When it starts to boil, turn the heat down, add the ground pistachios and saffron, and simmer for around 5 minutes.
• Transfer to a bowl and leave to cool down, then put in the fridge. When it is cold, pour into kulfi molds or a freezable container, cover and freeze for 2 to 3 hours.
• To remove the kulfis from their molds, dip them into hot water for a second, turn them upside down over a plate, and give them a sharp tap on the top.
• Serve with a sprinkling of chopped pistachios.

EASY AND YUMMIEST KULFI RECIPE

BROWN BUTTER KULFI WITH PECAN CARAMEL SAUCE

Steps:

• Place butter in a pan over medium/high heat until melted and brown in color, about 5 minutes. The solids are separating out hitting the pan and caramelizing. This is what flavors the liquid. As it starts to brown it will smell like caramel and the bubbling that you hear from the butter will begin to lessen. Strain the brown butter into another saucepan, reserving the brown bits. To that same saucepan, add the heavy cream and simmer over a low heat just until the cream picks up the brown butter flavors, 2 minutes. Transfer cream to a bowl and refrigerate until ice cold, 2 hours.
• When the whipped cream is ice cold, pour it into the bowl of a mixer and beat until it holds a soft peak, 2 minutes. Place back in the refrigerator and continue making the kulfi.
• Place egg yolks and sweetened condensed milk into the mixer and whip on medium speed to get to a ribbon stage. Meanwhile, make the caramel by adding water and sugar to a small saucepan over medium heat. Leave the mixture alone as it cooks until the sugar melts and just starts to caramelize. You'll know when it's done when the bubbles on top begin to turn brown, about 5-6 minutes. At the same time, the yolks and sweetened condensed milk are still mixing and when they're lighter, fluffier and hold their form, they'll be ready for the sugar/caramel mixture. When the mixture is on, slowly pour the hot caramel into the beating egg yolks. It's important to do this very slowly so the caramel doesn't harden as it goes into the mixture. As the caramel goes in, it slowly cooks the egg yolks. When all of the caramel's been added, turn the mixer to high and continue beating until the bowl is cool to the touch, another 5-8 minutes.
• When the bowl is cool to the touch, the meringue is ready. Fold the chilled whipped cream into the meringue by turning the bowl and using your hand at the same time with a spatula. This will keep the air in the whipped cream. Place the kulfi mixture into a bowl and freeze, 1 hour.
• For the pecan caramel sauce - Go back to the pot that has the brown butter and turn the heat to medium. Add the heavy cream, brown sugar and salt. Stir and continue cooking until the brown sugar melts and the butter and heavy cream are all combined. Add the pecans, turn the heat down and let the mixture simmer until it thickens a little, 2 minutes. To serve, place a few scoops of kulfi into a bowl, top with a spoonful of pecan caramel sauce and crumbled shortbread cookies (optional).

KULFI (INDIAN ICE CREAM)

Steps:

• 1. Chop up the pistachio nuts until they are in little bits, not too finely though or the finished kulfi will lose some of the wanted course texture.
• 2. Then place into a saucepan and add the other ingredients, carefully bring to the boil, as milk and cream boils at a lower temperature and will rise quickly in the saucepan.
• 3. While the mixture is simmering, stir slowly for about 1 minute until the ingredients are well blended in.
• 4. Allow to cool then whisk the mixture or use a hand blender to make the mixture even smoother, then pour the mixture into popsicle mould's, special kulfi mould's, brioche (French bread) mould's or even half coconut shells and freeze for 6 hours.
• 5. Before you serve the kulfi, dip the mould into warm water for several seconds so that the ice-cream is easier to remove and garnish with fine ground pistachios.
• 6. Of course kulfi can be made with fruits blended in as well and a popular choice is to use mangoes, add small to medium sized chunks of mango to the mixture after its taken off the heat and fold in, then freeze as normal.

PISTACHIO & ROSE WATER KULFI

Steps:

• Pulse the pistachios and sugar in a mixer until fine - be careful not to overmix or the pistachios will become oily. Mix the cornflour with 1 tbsp of the whole milk to make a smooth paste.
• Pour the remaining milk and the evaporated milk into a saucepan and bring to the boil. Add the pistachio powder, rose water and cornflour paste, and simmer for 5 mins until the mixture has thickened and coats the back of a spoon (it will continue to thicken as it cools).
• Pour into a bowl and cover the surface with cling film so a skin doesn't form. Leave to cool, then chill in the fridge until cold before churning in your ice cream machine following the manufacturer's instructions. If you don't have an ice cream machine, transfer to a freezer- proof container, pop in the freezer for 4 hrs or until frozen and stir every hour to break up any ice crystals.
• Take out of the freezer 20 mins before slicing or scooping to serve. Sprinkle with crushed pistachios and scatter over the cherries or berries.
