Description

Creamy, spiced Indian ice pops perfect for a hot day. A simple recipe with big flavor!


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 4 cups (946 ml) whole milk
  • 1/2 cups (118 ml) milk cream
  • 1/4 cups (59 ml) sugar
  • 1/4 cups (59 ml) thandai masala
  • 2 tablespoon pistachios (chopped)

Instructions

  1. In a heavy-bottomed pan, add milk and cream and let it simmer until boiling.
  2. Keep stirring and cook on low heat for about 30 minutes, until the milk is thickened and reduced to half its original quantity.
  3. Add sugar and cook for 5 more minutes, then remove from heat.
  4. Stir in thandai masala and pistachios, and let the milk cool.
  5. Once cooled, transfer the mixture into kulfi or popsicle molds and freeze for 4 to 6 hours.
  6. Remove from the freezer, serve, and enjoy.

Notes

  • For a smoother texture, strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve after adding the thandai masala.
  • Adjust the sugar to your preference, depending on the sweetness of your thandai masala.
  • If you don’t have kulfi molds, use popsicle molds or small paper cups lined with plastic wrap.
