wow! sounds super delicious! i wondered how it taste like. interesting to make ;) thanks for the great recipe!
Good basic recipe, I remember my uncle makes it by boiling the milk virtually the entire day and adds a little more than just cardamom, it it tastes great. I am sure your version is great, saves on the cooking time :)
This ice-cream sounds really delicious. Thanks for sharing via the video!
great recipe…i love cardamom and creamy things.
could you use real whipped cream in lieu of the cool whip?
Hey Cate,
Good question….I have never tried with real whip cream, I think it should be ok, maybe it would just be a little less sweet. Try it out and let me know!
Thanks.
Nice mise en place, and I love how your kitchen is clean and tidy!

That sounds like a great recipe. You can in fact mix fresh mango pulp (or any other fruit) or even tooty frooty to get a flavored kulfi. Goes great with falooda.
