If I tell you Ground almonds and pistachios along with heavy cream forms the base of this Indian style ice-cream (known as kulfi), won’t you wanna try it?

How to make kulfi without molds?

You can use disposable plastic cups to make popsicles if you don’t have kulfi or popsicle molds.

Pour the mixture into the mold and then cover with a small square piece of aluminum foil. Make a small dent and insert the posicle stick. (Image reference below).

Place it in the freezer to set.

Blanching almonds and pistachios can take an additional 10 minutes if you plan to do it at home.

Does it happen to you that whenever you watch a cooking show or come across a recipe, you can tell if the recipe is good by the list of ingredients? For example, Whenever a recipe calls for ground nuts like cashews and almonds | badam?
 
I always say, ‘food has to taste great when you add nuts’. Ground cashews are added to the base of Indian curries like
 
paneer tikka masala and
chicken tikka masala (Video Recipe).
 
 
Now you know why a good India curry tastes so delicious.

badam kulfi recipe

Kulfi is popular street food in India. The street vendor often stores the kulfi in earthen pots.

Most of the Indian desserts are prepared by simmering milk on low heat till the milk reduces in volume and becomes thick. It’s a long process and can be often time-consuming.

These days with heavy cream, condensed milk, evaporated milk and similar products in the market, it’s so much easier to make these Indian desserts at home with ease.
