About

Kulfi is a kind of churnless ice cream, but it’s not trouble-free. You have to keep removing it from the freezer as it hardens, to stir out the ice crystals. Budget plenty of time if you are making this dish.

Ingredients

2 cups milk
2½ cups heavy cream
3 cardamom pods

Gluten-free
Vegetarian

Method

Bring the milk and cream to a boil in a heavy saucepan. Add the cardamom pods and saffron. Lower the heat to a simmer and continue to cook until the mixture is reduced by half.
Remove the cardamom pods and stir in the condensed milk and evaporated milk. Add the almonds and three-quarters of the pistachios. Pour into a deep freezer-proof bowl and let cool.
