KESAR BADAAM KULFI

Serves: 14-15 ( depend on mold size)

Time: 25 mins ( leaving freezing time)

Ingredients 

1 Lt milk
1/2 tin condensed milk , nearly 200 ml
1/2 cup roasted almonds
10-12 threads of saffron, soaked in 2 tbsp milk
2 tbsp corn flour
2 tbsp Sugar or as per taste

Method:

First of all coarsly grind roasted almonds. Don't over grind as we want small chunks of almonds not powder. Keep aside for later use.

In a heavy bottom wok, boil milk till it remain 3/4th. Now add condensed milk and mix well. Let it boil again.

Now add corn flour in some warm milk and add in boiling milk , slowly and stirring constantly to avoid lump formation. Also add sugar and soaked saffron to it. Cook it stirring constantly till it become nice thick like custard . 

Always keep flame minimum after adding corn flour to avoid sticking to the bottom of pan. Now switch off the flame and add crushed almonds to it. Mix well and let it cool for 10-15 mins. 

Then pour in desired molds and keep in freezer for atleast 5-6 hrs or overnight. 

Then demold and serve chilled.

This delicious kulfi is loved by everyone, even my fussy eater loves to relish on it. I am so happy that In this way I can feed him some almonds. 

You can make any flavor of kulfi, this way. Substitute almonds with pista for pista kulfi, add any other dry fruit of your choice or add any other flavor of your choice. 

This kulfi always turned out superb for me and hope you will also love it. So please don't forget to share your experience with me, your valuable comments and suggestions are precious.
