Mango & Pistachio Kulfi
Did someone call for a pick-me-up?
It’s been an eventful week to say the least. As the weekend comes back around, it’s becoming increasingly more important to find ways to take a break from the usual Monday-Friday routine and enjoy your free time.
Tackling new kitchen projects is the best way to achieve this. Especially when the project in question is making homemade mango and pistachio kulfi. Alphonso mangoes work the best for this, but as the season is going to be delayed this year, use any kind of mango you can get your hands on.
Enjoy this sinfully delicious and beautifully effortless recipe. Definitely one to get the kids involved with.
