EASY MALAI KULFI
Kulfi is best described as Indian-style ice cream. However, unlike ice cream, kulfi is not churned. This is a fantastic summer dessert. This is a quick and easy version of kulfi. I almost never make kulfi the old way any more.

I love this treat in the summer. My mum use to make it in an ice cube tray, which made it easy to serve. If you like a lighter version use light cool whip instead of whipping cream. cook time does not include chilling.

KULFI (INDIAN ICE CREAM WITH NUTS)
A wonderful Madhur Jaffrey recipe. You don't need an ice-cream maker for this recipe, but if you do have one, you may use it! There are quite a few recipes posted here which includes cream. Kulfi is not made with cream, it's made with reduced milk. You may use full-cream or semi-skimmed milk. So, it would help to have a wide, heavy based sauce-pan for boiling down the milk, but a heavy non-stick pan would do as well. Please note, the cooking time does not include cooling time and freezing time.

Steps:
- Pour the milk into a wide, heavy based sauce pan and bring to boil over high heat, stirring constantly.
- As soon as the milk begins to rise, turn the heat down just to the point to allow the milk to simmer vigorously but without boiling over.
- Add in the cardamom pods.
- Leave the milk to boil and stir the sides of the pan constantly to avoid scalding.
- Whenever a film forms on top of the milk, just stir it in .
- The milk has to reduce to about a third of the original amount, about 750 ml (1 1/4 pints) which will take about 45 minutes.
- When the milk has reduced, remove the cardamom pods and discard them.
- Add in the sugar and almonds, stir and simmer gently for 2-3 minutes.
- Pour the reduced milk into a bowl (which can be put into the freezer) and let it cool completely.
- Add half of the chopped pistachios and stir them in .
- Cover the bowl with an aluminum foil and put it in the freezer.
- (I do not have an ice-cream maker, but if you do, then you can pour the milk into the machine and get it going).
- Meanwhile, put 6 small individual cups or a 900ml ( 1 1/2 pints) pudding basin in the freezer.
- Every 15 minutes or so, remove the ice-cream bowl from the freezer and give the ice-cream a good stir.
- As the ice-cream begins to freeze, it will become harder to stir but when it becomes almost impossible to stir, take out the cups or pudding basin from the freezer and divide the ice-cream between the cups or empty it into the pudding basin.
- Sprinkle the remaining pistachios over the top and cover with aluminum foil sealing them well on the edges.
- Return them back to the freezer to let the ice-cream harden (for at least 4 hours).
- If it's in individual cups, then remove the cups from the freezer 10-15 minutes before you want to serve it to soften slightly.
- If it's made in the pudding basin, you can put it in the fridge 20-30 minutes before serving.
- Remove the ice-cream from the pudding basin by running a sharp knife around the edges of the ice-cream and slip it onto a serving plate (it should slip off easily, if it doesn't then dip the bowl in hot water and try again).
- Cut into 6 slabs and serve.
- Enjoy!
EASY, SPECTACULAR FREEZER ICE CREAM - NO MACHINE NEEDED!
Thick, rich, and creamy, and with a texture to rival (or even surpass) homemade ice cream from a machine. Seriously. My machine-made ice cream often turns out a little icy, but this doesn't. Just dense creaminess. And it's super simple to make. If you can operate a hand mixer, you can make this. "Cooking" time is freezing time.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, mix condensed milk and fruit puree/flavorings thoroughly.
- In a separate bowl, beat chilled whipping cream until stiff peaks form.
- Fold whipping cream into condensed milk mixture, along with any stir-ins (like cookie pieces, fruit chunks, candy, etc.) that you desire.
- Pour into a plastic or metal container (not glass), cover, and freeze for at least 4 hours or overnight. Scoop and enjoy!
- Makes about 1 1/2 pints (3 cups).
- Note on flavorings: Fruit puree or a strong fruit juice (even concentrate) works well, but be sure it's unsweetened or relatively sour or your ice cream will be too sweet. Lemon juice works great, as does margarita mix; top with crushed pretzels when serving for a salty-sweet treat. Or use brewed coffee or tea. If using tea, steep 3 teabags in 1/3 cup of hot water for about 5-7 minutes and press the water out of the teabags when removing them. I just made an excellent chamomile tea ice cream this way; it had a lovely, delicate flavor.
- Another note: I've heard you can substitue Cool Whip for the whipping cream--I'd go with about 1 1/2 to 2 cups--but as I haven't tried it myself, I can't vouch for the results. It would make it lower fat and easier to put together, but the texture might suffer.

EASY KULFI (ICE CREAM WITHOUT AN ICE CREAM FREEZER!)
Someone was asking about kulfi on the boards awhile back; I got interested and made some myself! Found this online. It's easy and it tastes great--and the best part is that NO ice cream freezer is needed! (prep time is freezing time). It's also very cheap---I could imagine any college kid with a fridge/freezer in his dorm could make this as well! Enjoy!

Steps:
- In a large bowl, stir together well the evaporated milk, condensed milk, cream, and optional other flavor.
- Pour into popsicle molds, Indian stainless steel kulfi molds, or even a small bowl.
- Freeze overnight.
- Remove from the molds by resting their bottoms very briefly in warm to hot water (if you do this for too long you'll have a gooey mess!).
Tips:
- Use full-fat milk for a richer and creamier kulfi.
- If you don't have saffron, you can use a pinch of turmeric powder or a few drops of yellow food coloring.
- You can also add other flavors to your kulfi, such as cardamom, rose water, or pistachio.
- If you don't have an ice cream freezer, you can use a regular freezer. Just freeze the kulfi mixture in a covered container for at least 6 hours, or overnight.
- To make kulfi pops, pour the kulfi mixture into popsicle molds and freeze until solid.
Conclusion:
Kulfi is a delicious and refreshing Indian frozen dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make at home, even without an ice cream freezer. With a few simple ingredients and a little time, you can enjoy this traditional treat in no time.
