Mango kulfi recipe

Mango kulfi recipe with video & step by step photos – Kulfi is an Indian ice cream made with milk, sugar and other flavoring ingredients. There are a few different variations of making it and the method I am sharing here is one of them. Mango kulfi can be made from scratch by evaporating the milk for long time and then cooling it down then adding the mango pulp.

This method takes quite long and is a tedious process, so I went ahead making this no cook mango kulfi using condensed milk and cream.

There will be no formation of ice crystals in this instant mango kulfi due to the high fats used. This recipe uses no milk. Homemade malai, fresh cream or whipping cream can be used. Choose mature ripe mangoes that are sweet and not sour. Using sour mangoes in this recipe may upset the tummy.

I have used 120 ml stainless steel cups, since I do not own kulfi moulds & do not prefer plastic popsicle moulds. You can use any of these.
