Matka Malai Kulfi
Kulfi or malai kulfi is traditional Indian ice cream, but denser and creamier. It is usually made by using fresh cream for quick preparation or boiling milk over low heat for a long period until it reduced considerably in volume, as a traditional method. Then freeze the mixture in small earthen pot molds known as ‘Matka’. Other plastic molds or metal molds are widely used in modern times for kulfi. Due to its density, kulfi takes a longer time to melt than Western ice-cream.
It comes in various flavors. The more traditional ones are cream (malai), rose, mango, cardamom (elaichi), saffron (kesar or zafran), and pistachio. There are newer variations such as apple, orange, strawberry, peanut, and avocado. Unlike ice cream, kulfi is not whipped, resulting in a solid, dense frozen dessert similar to traditional custard-based ice cream.
