Come summer, the strong
aroma of mangoes captivates your senses even as you enter the market. It is
simply impossible to leave without buying some. Kulfi is basically Indian
Ice-Cream, and is made with mostly milk, full fat milk!! Yep the good
stuff!
Traditionally to
make Kulfi you would take full fat milk (more than 4% fat), cook it on medium
low heat for about an hour or more until it is reduced to 1/3 of it’s original
quantity. The more you reduce the milk the more rich your Kulfi will be.
Tools
- Mixer – K-Mix/ Kitchen-Aid type or Hand
- Mixerworks too!
Food Processor / Bowl - Blender for pulping the mangoes
- But try some Kulfi Pots and serve them with some chopped mangoes for some fine dining experience – know what mean? Make it special.
Ingredients
- Evaporated Milk – One can
- Condensed Milk – One Can
- Fresh Cream – 1 cup (Whipped)
- Mango Pulp – French 1 cup or (one can)

Steps to do Mango Kulfi in Home:
- Combine the saffron and the warm milk in a small bowl, mix well and keep aside.
- Combine the cornflour and 2 tbsp of water in a bowl, mix well and keep aside.
- Heat the milk in a deep non-stick pan and boil on a medium flame for 6 minutes, while stirring occasionally.
- Add the cornflour-water mixture and sugar, mix well and cook on a slow flame for 20 to 25 minutes, while stirring occasionally and scrapping the sides.
- Switch off the flame and allow the mixture to cool completely.
- Once cooled, add the mango pulp, saffron-milk mixture and cardamom powder and mix well using a whisk.
- Add the mangoes and mix gently.
- Pour the mixture into 11 kulfi moulds and freeze overnight.
- To unmould, allow the moulds to remain outside the freezer for 5 minutes and then unmould by inserting a wooden skewer stick or a fork in the centre of the kulfi and pulling it out.
