Kulfi is homemade icecream. This recipe originally is from the first Hare Krishna cookbook, with countless variations. In this case it is mango flavoring.
INGREDIENTS:
- 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
- 1 cup cold milk
- 1 c kheer made from 6 cups of milk and 1/2 c sugar (or use sweetened condensed milk)
- 2 mangos, chopped
PREPARATION:
- Blend all in a blender until the cream is semi whipped
- Use an ice cream make OR freeze in a bowl, stirring every hour or two until the mixture is solid frozen. Then leave in the freezer at least 48 hrs. for the best texture. We learned this from an expert homemade icream maker: That is, if you want the cream to not coat your tongue when you offer this icecream, freeze it for a good amount of time first.
- When getting ready to offer, let it thaw about 10 minutes first.
TIPS ON EATING ICECREAM ACCORDING TO AYURVEDA:
Avoid night time eating
Avoid cold season eating
Use warm spices like cinnamon and ginger powder if you need a digestive boost! Even fresh ginger is good, (but a little chewy/not for everyone!).
