This is one of the quickest dessert recipes and is an absolute treat to both young and old.  One dessert recipe that never fails and a great  dessert to have in summer or in winter!!

Ingredients to serve approximately 20 people

850 Gms Alphonso Mango Pulp
(Canned or fresh mangoes made into a pulp)
300 ml Fresh Cream

Preparation

In a large rectangular bowl, pour all of the above one by one and mix it thoroughly except the Pistachio nuts
Place it in the freezer to set for 5-6 hours.

If you have Kulfi cones, mix all the ingredients and fill each cone.  Stand the cones upright in the freezer – remove from freezer after it is set and either serve as is on individual plates or cut it into circular discs and serve!!

Sprinkle the slivered or grated Pistachio nuts on top and the mango kulfi is now ready to be cut and served

Note: The Kulfi has to be taken out of the freezer only minutes before serving as it melts quite rapidly
Individual Kulfi moulds can also be used

Pistachio Kulfi also tastes great – grind a handful of pistachios with a little water into a soft mixture and substitute it for the mango pulp.  You may use Pistachio essence to enhance the flavour and colour!!
