Mango Kulfi

Mango Kulfi, a delicious Indian ice cream recipe made with just a handful of ingredients: mango pulp, condensed milk, evaporated milk, double cream, pistachios, saffron and ground cardamom. It's an incredibly aromatic ice cream with a rich, creamy and fudgy texture that contrasts so nicely with the crunch coming from the pistachios. Super easy to put together, a must-try frozen treat for the hot season.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup mango pulp
  • 1 cup sweeteened condensed milk

Instructions

  • In a jug, add the cream, evaporated milk, condensed milk, mango pulp, saffron and ground cardamom, and use a whisk to mix well.
  • Divide half of the chopped pistachios between the paper cups, pour equal amount of mango mixture, and top with the remaining chopped pistachios.
  • Cover each cup with kitchen foil, then make a small cut at the top so you can insert a popsicle / ice lolly stick into each cup.

  • To remove the kulfi from the cups, just dip them briefly in hot water, they should pop out easily.

Notes

Make sure to insert the popsicle / ice lolly sticks before the ice creams go in the freezer. You can use paper cups like I did, or you can use popsicle moulds, that's entirely up to you.
