Ingredients

  • 1.5 litres whole milk
  • 60-75 gram demerara sugar
  • Few strands of saffron
  • 50 gram pistachios roughly chopped

Instructions

  • Add the milk to a wide pan with a thick bottom and bring it to boil on high heat.
  • Turn down the heat and simmer until reduced to about one third of its original volume.
  • Make sure to stirring the milk regularly so that it doesn't stick to the bottom of the pan.
  • The milk will be ready once you notice the solids forming in the milk.
  • Once you are left with about half litre of milk, mix in the chopped pistachios, sugar and saffron. Leave some pistachio aside for garnishing.
  • Cook for another 4-5 minutes until the sugar dissolves completely.
  • Bring the mixture to room temperature.
  • Pour the mixture in ice cream molds.
  • Keep some of the milk mixture aside for use as a garnish. Make sure to leave it in the fridge so that it doesn't go bad.
  • Freeze the molds overnight or 5-6 hours at a minimum.
  • When ready to serve, take out of the freezer few minutes before ready to serve. Briefly dip the molds in hot water to easily remove the kulfi from the mold.
  • Slice the ice cream into 1-inch thick slices and garnish with the remaining pistachio and drizzle the milk mixture on the kulfi slices.
