As you may be aware that I am running a Blogging Marathon with a few of my blogger friends initiated by Srivalli, I am bound by certain rules and this time around, I have chosen to blog about recipes which fall under the falling categories.
1. Seven Days of shelf stable goodies for Kids
2. Recipe less picture posts
3. Seven Days of Regional Specials
4. Seven Days of Picnic food
5. Seven different ways to use an Ingredient (Irrelevant)
6. Seven different ways to replace Egg in Baking (Irrelevant)
7. Seven days of Mini Bites
So for the next week, I shall blog one recipe from each of the categories.
For the first day of this BM #6 session 2, I have chosen to blog under the Mini Bites series.
I agree that making this version of Kulfis isa little time taking. But I promise I shall soon post the easier version of enjoying these Kulfis which is just as delectable. This Mango Rabdi was originally prepared for general consumption [served in mini cups :)]. But I converted them into mini versions later on for the kids. But I must say the adults of our house enjoyed these mini versions just as much!! Take a look at the pictures and decide for yourself which versions each of you prefer!!
Ingredients -
Milk 8 cups
Milk Powder 2 cups
Mango pulp from 2 big mangoes or about 3 cups
Sugar 2 cups (Adjust according to the sweetness of the mangoes)
Cardamom powder
For Garnish -
Crushed Almonds 3 Tbsp
Saffron strands a pinch
Method Of Preparation -
Mix the milk powder in the milk and boil the milk while constantly stirring. [To avoid stirring for a long time, I chose to boil 3 cups milk + milk powder separately in the microwave for about 10 min and mixed it to the milk boiling on the stove top - Totally optional.] This step is likely to take about 30 min or more depending on what method you use. I had to do this for about 30 min.
Add sugar to the simmering milk about half way through and continue stirring.
Meanwhile extract the mango pulp from the mangoes (peel, discard the seed and blend the mango pieces smooth with adding any water). Keep aside.
When the milk condenses to half the quantity, add the cardamom powder, saffron soaked in milk (optional), mix well and remove from fire. Let the Rabdi cool down completely. Refrigerate if needed.
Just before serving mix the mango pulp into the Rabdi and garnish with crushed almonds and saffron strands.
I made this for a party of 6 and had some leftover Rabdi. I tried freezing it in small popsicle moulds for the kids and we enjoyed the mango rabdi kulfis too!!
Passing on these kulfis to Champa's 'Kid's Delight - Mini Bites' started by Srivalli and to Reva's 'Only-Icecreams' started by Pari.
Preparation Time 45 min
Makes 12 servings (4 oz each)
