Kesar Badam Kulfi is a delicious frozen Indian dessert with the creamy texture of whole-milk, the crunch of almonds combined with a hint of saffron & cardamom.
Servings: 6 to 10 Kulfis depending on the size
Ingredients
- 1 Litre Full fat milk
- 1 Cup Almonds roughly chopped
- 1/3 Cup Sugar adjust to taste
- Few Saffron strands
- 1/2 teaspoon Cardamom powder
- For Garnish:
- Chopped nuts of your choice
Instructions
- Heat milk in a wide bottomed pan over medium high heat and bring to a boil.
- Allow the milk to simmer over medium heat till it reaches half its original quantity. Keep stirring in between.
- Add saffron, sugar and the roughly chopped nuts.
- Mix well and keep simmering on medium heat. Stir till it further reduces to almost one third of its original quantity.
- Turn off heat when it gets a thick consistency like rabdi and allow to cool.
- Once cool, add some cardamom powder and mix well.
- Pour the chilled mixture into holds and freeze them.
- After an hour, stick a wooden stick into the kulfi and place it back in the freezer. Let it set overnight or at least 6-8 hours.
- To Unmould:
- Once the kulfi sets, allow the moulds to remain outside the refrigerator for 3-4 minutes or place them under warm running water for just few seconds. Now pull out the kulfi with the help of the wooden stick in the centre.
- Garnish with a few chopped nuts and serve immediately.
