    Mango Kulfi Recipe

    Kulfi was in my to do list for a very long time, finally i made it for this summer. I made a mango kulfi this time and i have few more versions to try as well.

    About this Recipe

    Kulfi is a frozen dairy dessert that originated in the 16th century in the Indian subcontinent. It is a traditional sweet of the Indian subcontinent and is often referred to as traditional Indian ice cream. Kulfi is denser and creamier than ice cream. It is commonly sold by street vendors known as kulfiwallahs in India. It is popular
    outside of India in Bangladesh, Myanmar, Nepal, Sri Lanka, and the Middle East. It is a staple in the cuisines of Pakistan and Trinidad and Tobago.

    This is such an easy recipe to make, all you need is some milk. You don't need any cream in this. Try to use ripe sweet mangoes in this, because that what make this. 

    The word kulfi is derived from the Persian word qulfi, which means covered cup.The dessert is thought to have originated in the Mughal Empire in the 16th century. In the Indian subcontinent, the combination of dense evaporated milk was already popular in sweet dishes. This mixture was flavoured with pistachios and saffron during
    the Mughal period, packed into metal cones, and immersed in slurry ice, giving rise to the invention of kulfi.

     
     
    Hope you will give this a try and let me know how it turns out for you..

    Ingredients for Mango Kulfi Recipe :

    Mango Essence :
    Mango essences are commonly used in food to add a mango flavour and colour to a beverage or dish preparation.

    Cornflour:
    When paired with all-purpose flour, cornstarch helps prevent gluten development, which makes the flour coating crispier, and absorb moisture (from the frying and the chicken), which also means a crispier coating.

    Saffron :
    Saffron is a potent spice that is high in antioxidants. It has been linked to a variety of health benefits, including increased mood, libido, and sexual function, as well as reduced PMS symptoms and weight loss. Best of all, it is generally safe for most people and simple to incorporate into your diet.

        Cornflour will add nice creamyness. You can skip it and add little powdered almond,
