Summer Special Mango Kulfi !!!!!!

mango kulfi

Growing up in India,for me summer meant a roomful of mangoes delivered in wooden crates.The dozens and dozens of mangoes ripening in the wooden crates, filled the house with the delicious aroma of the famous Alphonso mangoes.I ate mangoes in every form for breakfast,lunch and dinner!

Kulfi is like icecream.Traditional recipes for kulfi involve boiling the milk until it is thick in consistency. It is a time consuming recipe! This recipe below takes  just minutes to make ,is creamy and super delicious ! Here in America, Mango kulfi is evocative of the summers in India.

Serve it at your next party and get ready for rave reviews!

    1. Tracey, I do get fresh mangoes to eat and for other recipes but for the kulfi I use the Ratna brand mango pulp that comes from Ratnagiri, India famous for its alphonso mangoes.
      If using fresh mangoes, they need to be pureed and put through a sieve. The amount of sugar will depend on the sweetness of the mango.

    1. Thanks Rita! Do let me know how you like it. This is one of my favorites. I taught it at one of my cooking classes and the women wrote back to say how much their guests were impressed when they made it.

    1. Shivani,
      For this recipe, I cover the kulfi tightly with 2 layers of plastic wrap and then put the lid on before freezing. There are absolutely no ice crystals in the kulfi.
