Ingredients

2 litres full-fat milk
1 cup milk powder
1 cup sugar adjust to taste
¼ cup almonds finely chopped
1 tablespoon pistachios chopped
½ teaspoon cardamom powder

Instructions

Pour 2 litres of full-fat milk into a heavy-bottomed pan. Bring it to a boil, then reduce the flame and let it simmer.
Once the milk reduces slightly, add 1 cup of milk powder. Stir well to avoid lumps and mix it thoroughly.
Continue to simmer the milk on low flame. Stir often and scrape the malai (cream) from the sides, mixing it back into the milk. Let it reduce to about half its original quantity.
Now add 1 cup of sugar, ¼ cup chopped almonds, 1 tablespoon chopped pistachios, and ½ teaspoon cardamom powder. Mix well.
Turn off the flame and let the mixture cool completely at room temperature.
Once cool, pour the mixture into clean, dry matkas or kulfi moulds. Cover with foil or lids.
Place them in the freezer for 6–8 hours or overnight, until fully set.
Remove from the freezer, garnish with some extra chopped nuts if you like, and serve chilled.
