Matka Malai Kulfi
Indian Sweets has a blasting flavor with lots of ghee and chena(paneer)in it! Mostly Indian sweets are prepared with simmered rich and creamy milk and paneer that adds a creamy and malai texture to it! I just love them, but preparing them is not a simple task for me! I have some recipes like the most delicious gulab jamun, easy ras malai in the blog! This is a new addition to it and a must try one!😊
I love kulfi with that creamy texture of rabri(simmered and flavored milk) with lots of nuts like pistachio, badam, and cashew with the flavoring of cardamom and saffron! This thick yellowy cream with the chunks of nuts will be surely a crowd-pleaser among all! As Diwali is here Sweets are there at every nook and corner and I’m madly craving for some, so made this malai kulfi to satisfy my cravings!
It’s really rich as we are adding many such ingredients like cream, milkpowder, nuts paste in it to make it creamier and delicious! I hope you all will love my version of malai kulfi! Check out the recipe! You can also set it in a popsicle or kulfi mold if you don’t have a matka.
