Steps To Make Mango Kulfi

Making Mango kulfi includes two methods all depending on which method you will like. Many people enjoy the traditional method but if you are in a hurry the quick and easy method is also there. 

Traditional Method

1. Simmer the Milk – Heat milk in a saucepan over medium heat. Some recipes might call for adding milk powder for extra richness. Simmer for 45 minutes to 1 hour or more, stirring occasionally, until the milk thickens considerably. This step concentrates the milk flavors and creates the base for the kulfi.
2. Add Sweetener & Flavorings – Once the milk thickens, remove it from the heat and stir in your sweetener and cardamom powder. 

3. Cool the mixture – Let the milk mixture cool completely. This can take some time, so be patient.
4. Incorporate Mango Puree – Once cool, stir in your mango puree until well combined.
5. Freeze – Cover the mixture into your molds (traditional metal molds, popsicle molds, small cups, etc.). Freeze for at least 3-4 hours, or until completely solid.
   
   

Quick & Easy Method

2. Whisk Together Ingredients – In a blender, combine full-fat milk, condensed milk (or sugar), cardamom powder (or other chosen flavorings), and mango puree. Blend until smooth.
3. Freeze- Pour the mixture into your molds and cover them. Freeze for at least 3-4 hours, or until completely solid.
