Mango kulfi is a delicious Indian dessert recipe. It is another form of ice cream. This mango kulfi is easy to prepare and a vibrant recipe you should try. This recipe is prepared with condensed milk which gives the extra creaminess.
Notes from Priya 🙂
Kulfi is known as “traditional Indian ice cream”. As per Wikipedia, Kulfi is a Persian word. It likely originated in the Mughal Empire in the 16th century. The mixture of dense evaporated milk was already popular in the sweet dishes. During the Mughal period, this mixture was flavored with pistachios and saffron, packed into metal cones, and immersed in slurry ice, resulting in the invention of Kulfi.
The mango season has already started here in Pune. Good quality Alphonso has already come on the market and I started eating crazily 😉
I know you guys love mango too 🙂 My summer is usually incomplete without mango kulfi or mango ice cream. So, I am sharing my version of the mango kulfi recipe here.
Mango kulfi can be prepared in many ways like no cooking kulfis, kulfi with custard powder, and kulfi with milk. I am sharing the milk version as I love milk version. though no cooking method will give extra soft ice creams This recipe is the old one and is a big hit still 🙂 There are ice-cream powders available in the market but I never tried them and that is a truth.
This recipe is quite simple with no fancy ingredients. To make this recipe, You need to boil your milk about 15 mins first. corn flour slurry is used to thicken the milk and to avoid 90% ice crystals. later condensed milk is used for the sweetness and of course mango puree as the main flavoring agent. as per my opinion, you really don’t need to use food colors and emulsions as fresh mango puree is just enough 🙂

Valuable information. Fortunate me I discovered your website by chance, and I’m shocked why this twist of fate did not took place earlier! I bookmarked it.
The condensed milk out of the can is already very thick. Two table spoons of water added to half a cup of the milk still leaves it very thick and it becomes even more condensed if boiled for 15 minutes. Sorry but after adding cornflower and puree it is almost a solid mess which really does not need freezing into a molded concrete block Surely a tin of evaporated milk with an appropriate amount of preserving sugar would be better. My problem is that here in Thailand I am unable to obtain preserving sugar, hence I am unable to try out my idea.
