This is my modified version of a delicious Mango-saffron flavoured Kulfi- made from curdled milk. It has a soft and grainy texture, with a wholesome mango flavour with some hint of saffron, perfect for summers! You can enjoy it both frozen and chilled.

And even better, it barely requires 3-4 ingredients to make!

I haven't used any artificial colours, flavours or sweeteners

Supplies

  • 1x Sweet Mango
  • 300ml Full Fat Milk

Take some milk in a pan and add a few saffron strands for colour and aroma. Add the saffron before 30 mins of preparation so the saffron strands are well soaked in the milk.

Heat the Milk

Heat the milk on low flame and stir occasionally.

Reduce the Milk

Keep heating the milk on low flame until about 1/3rd of it is reduced.

You can add sugar to it at this point if you want. But since mango is already sweet, I have skipped the sugar.

Prepare the Mango Pulp

Cut a mango and blend it into a smooth paste.

Add the Mango Pulp to the Milk

Add the mango pulp to the milk and mix it together. If it forms lumps, you can use a whisk to mix it thoroughly.

Milk Curdles

As it is stirred, we see that the milk curdles and turns grainy. It has also turned bright yellow in colour, because of the mango.

Evaporate Excess Water

Keep heating it and stir continuously. After a few minutes, the excess water evaporates fully and the mixture has become thick and creamy.

Pour It in Molds

when it becomes thick and creamy, pour it into cupcake moulds or ice cream moulds.

Freeze or Chill It

Let the mixture come to room temperature. Then you can either freeze or chill it. Both taste great.

De-Mould It
