In this blog post, we will take you through the process of making dry fruit kesar kulfi, complete with all the necessary ingredients and step-by-step instructions.

Ingredients:

• 1-liter full-fat milk
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1/4 tsp saffron threads
• 1/4 cup chopped mixed nuts (cashews, almonds, pistachios, raisins)
• 2 tsp cornflour
• 1/4 cup milk powder
• 1 tsp cardamom powder

Instructions:

Step 1: In a large saucepan, bring the milk to a boil. Once it comes to a boil, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. This will help thicken the milk.

Step 2: While the milk is simmering, soak the saffron threads in 1 tbsp. of warm milk and set it aside.

Step 3: In a separate pan, add the sugar and 1/2 cup of water. Bring it to a boil and let it cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the sugar dissolves completely. Turn off the heat and let it cool.

Step 4: In a small bowl, mix the corn flour and milk powder with a little bit of water to form a paste.

Step 5: Once the milk has reduced to about half its original volume, add the saffron milk, sugar syrup, and mixed nuts. Mix well.

Step 6: Add the corn flour and milk powder paste to the milk mixture and stir continuously for about 10 minutes, until it thickens.

Step 7: Add the cardamom powder and mix well.

Step 8: Pour the mixture into kulfi molds or popsicle molds and freeze them for at least 6 hours or overnight.

Step 9: Once the kulfi is frozen, remove them from the molds by dipping them in warm water for a few seconds. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Tips:

• You can add other nuts such as walnuts or hazelnuts for added texture and flavor.
• If you prefer a smoother texture, you can blend the mixture in a blender before pouring it into the molds.
• To make the kulfi even more flavorful, you can add rose water or cardamom powder.
• You can also use condensed milk instead of sugar to sweeten the kulfi.
• If you don't have kulfi molds, you can use paper cups or small bowls instead.
