What’s Cooking in Gail’s Kitchen? Food for Sharing: Kulfi with Pistachios and Lavender Buds! Kulfi is a type of homemade ice cream popular in Southeast Asia and India. This “instant” version can be made in your very own kitchen without the cost or hassle of an ice cream maker. Flavored with pistachio nuts and a hint of lavender make it a delectable frozen dessert worth crowing about.
KULFI WITH PISTACHIOS AND LAVENDER BUDS
Ingredients:
10 ounces evaporated milk
1 cup heavy cream
14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
2 teaspoons cardamom
1/2 cup pistachios, chopped
1 teaspoon lavender buds, crushed
1 teaspoon lavender extract
Instructions:
Combine evaporated milk, heavy cream, and sweetened condensed milk. Blend until smooth. Add cardamom, pistachios, lavender buds, and lavender extract. Stir. Pour into bouchon molds, fluted pan, or popsicle molds. Freeze overnight. Before serving, dip the molds in warm water. Invert kulfi onto a dessert plate. Garnish with crushed pistachios.
Looks fabulous and seems to be a very easy recipe. Thanks for sharing Gail.
