Malai Kulfi is a very rich and creamy traditional Indian Ice cream recipe. It is better than normal ice creams as it is made using dry fruits, cream, milk, and mawa. It is available in different varieties and flavors like the normal Malai Kulfi, Kesar pista kulfi, Kesar Kulfi, Mango Kulfi, Rose Kulfi, etc. It is usually made using condensed milk but in this Kulfi recipe, I’ll show you how to make Kulfi without condensed milk and without using milk powder or custard powder. In this recipe, I’ve only used Mawa and whipped cream and simmered full cream milk with added dry fruits and cardamom powder for flavor. This is a quicker and easier method than normal Malai Kulfi.
This simple and easy Kulfi ice cream recipe uses milk, mawa(khoya), and whipped cream to make a delicious, creamy, and exotic Indian ice cream that is delicious and would surprise your friends and family. The kids will especially love this during the hot summer months. It is also used to make other dishes such as Kulfi Falooda and it has so many varieties and they all have different flavors but taste amazing. To make Kulfi quickly, I’ve used Mawa or Khoya which thickens the milk and it is not required to make Rabdi to make traditional Kulfi.
Also, try the traditional Malai Kulfi recipe, Kesar pista Kulfi, Mango Kulfi, and other ice creams such as Rajbhog Ice cream and Vanilla Ice cream.
