Recipe Notes

To easily remove kulfi from the mold, dip it in warm water and rub the mold between the palm of your hands.

After removing the kulfi from the mold coat the kulfi with crushed pistachios if needed.

You can also sprinkle crushed pistachios on top of the mold once the mixture is half set.

You can also use store brought slivered almonds if you don't want to go to the process of blanching the nuts.
