Matka Kulfi

I guess no special intro is required for Kulfi Ice cream since it is every ones favorite. In my home town they sell kulfis in a earthenware pot called ‘Matka’ filled with Ice Cream.Me and Arvind love kulfi very much but  now a days we totally stopped having ice creams as Aishu is learning vocal  Sad smileso not making it very often at home,but I made kulfi yesterday after long time for the special occasion.  Most of the recipes calls for condensed milk and full cream but i tried it in a simple way. I am sure it tastes delicious.

I made this special heart shape kulfi for my HubbyRed rose and sending this to Priya’s Valentine’s day Event.

Variations:

  • You can use almond’s instead of pistachios for Kesar Badam Kulfi.
  • If you want to make mango kulfi you can add the mangoes pulp with the milk and mix well.
  • You can drop the kulfi mix in kulfi mould also if you don’t get the pot.After dropping the mix insert a stick into the mix so that it is easy for you to take out from the mould.Before taking it out just show the back of the mould in running water so that it will not stick into the mould and you will get the perfect shape.
  • If you are using the new Mutka pot soak in water for half an hour before use.

Do try this yummy ice cream and enjoy !!!

Wishing you all a Happy Valentine’s day!!!
