Kulfa ice cream || Homemade ice cream Recipe || How to make kulfa ice cream at home with step-by-step photos

Kulfa ice cream is the most popular and delicious frozen ice cream flavor. It is with filled nuts that are found eaten by people of all age groups, especially during the summer weather. I also love to eat it due to its creamy and nutty taste.

Since I came into the cooking field, I always used to think that making kulfi and ice cream at home was probably an art and could only be done by chefs, but my perception was wrong. As time went on, I learned that nothing is difficult to make at home like a market or restaurant; it just takes courage to face challenges and achieve a goal.

After trying a few different flavors at home, I decided to make kulfa ice cream that is buttery in texture with a nutty flavor
A combination of pistachio with almonds, and cardamom, along with homemade khoya flavor, is super, especially when the mixture is folded with whipped cream

This delightful dessert recipe of Kulfa Ice Cream can be ready in approximately an hour and frozen in around 8-10 hours.

Recipe notes:

You will need a handful of simple, yet fragrant, ingredients to make kulfi ice cream. The sweetened condensed milk, heavy whipping cream, and chopped nuts are easily available at supermarkets.
  1. Green cardamom is an aromatic spice with a wide range of uses. Adding to the kulfi ice cream mixture makes it flavorful
  2. But it is optional; you can skip it
  3. Condensed milk: using condensed milk in making ice cream gives it a thick and soft texture and is used as a substitute for sugar-I have already shared my condensed milk recipe on the blog, either you can get the recipe on my blog or can buy it from the market, but you can add powdered sugar as well instead of condensed milk, using grainy sugar will increase the iciness 
  4. Heavy whipping cream: Choose good-quality heavy cream, and before whipping the cream, it should be chilled and frozen.
  5. Homemade ice cream is fresh, delicious, and fun to make. Additionally, you can customize your flavors or use the highest-quality ingredients available. But it can be tricky to get ice cream to have that perfect firm yet creamy consistency that is the trademark of good ice cream. Follow these tips to improve your own ice cream-making technique.e

Tips:
  1. Freeze the container for 24 hours. It needs to be frozen solid!
  2. Use more cream and less milk. 
  3. Use a solid sweetener. Whereas a liquid sweetener, such as sugar syrup or honey, will increase iciness with its water content
  4. Fill your ice cream maker 1/2 to 2/3 full. This is important. The frozen tub where the filling gets churned has only so much freeze to give before it is no longer cold. If there's too much filling, there's not enough chilling, and you don't want soupy ice cream!
  5. Keep It Creamy
  6. A common complaint about homemade ice cream is that it gets hard and icy when it's stored in the freezer. There are several ways to keep your ice cream from freezing solid in the freezer. Condensed milk or honey, as well as gelatin and commercial stabilizers, can all keep your ice cream at a softer consistency. Ice cream also stays softer when you store it in a shallow container, rather than a deep tub, and cover the surface of the ice cream with plastic wrap to keep ice crystals from forming.
  7. With a little practice and some good recipes (whether it's classic Vanilla or an adventurous flavor like chocolate ice cream, you'll be well on your way to making delicious homemade ice cream that will delight your friends and family.

Almond Naankhatai | Almond Cookie || How to make almond nankhatai with step-by-step photos


Almond Naankhatai is a flaky, sweetened, traditional buttery cookie. In Pakistan, it is known as “Naankhatai” and is very popular. It’s super easy to make, make mouth-melting cookies in no time.

This cookie can be made in various styles and with various ingredients

 You can find out my other version of nankhatai on my blog, naankhati cookiegram nankhatai

 

Naankhati is best described as an eggless cookie with many variations. You can make these cookies sweet with nuts. They all melt in your mouth and leave you craving more.

Nankhatai has to be prepared with:

Unsalted or salted butter, but I am using homemade unipuff/ shortening. You can make every type of cookie from this shortening that I have already shared in an earlier post on my blog.

Prepared with?

Nankhatai is usually prepared with all-purpose flour and semolina with butter. Here I am using all-purpose flour with a little amount of semolina, shortening, roasted chopped almonds, and icing sugar.         

For the best result, follow my detailed step-by-step photo instructions and tips.

Recipe notes:

To make perfect nankhatai cookies, it's important to remember that all ingredients should be at room temperature. 

Aim for accuracy by weighing all ingredients on a scale, as cup measurements can vary and may not be reliable.

Using shortening is the best choice for these cookies, but if you find it difficult to obtain, you can substitute it with clarified butter.

Feel free to adjust the sugar according to your taste. I used 250 grams, but you can alternatively use an equal amount of icing sugar mixed with the flour.

A healthy twist to a classic cookie:

This is my version of the classic Nankhatai or Almond Cookies. I made them healthier by substituting half of the All-Purpose Flour with a little amount of semolina and boosting with chopped roasted almonds. I add a little semolina to add a crunch, and these cookies make the perfect accompaniment to a cup of tea or coffee.
