Glossary
KulfiKulfi is Indian style home-made ice cream. It is traditionally made with condensed and evaporated milk to which cardomom or saffron, nuts such as pistachio or almonds, and a variety of fresh fruits - mango, lemon, melon, litchi, banana etc - are added for flavour. Some cooks insist on adding slices of bread to achieve the right texture and consistency.
