Summer is in its peak and its time to have an ice cream or an Indian version of it like this Malai Kulfi!This Malai kulfi recipe is very simple and kids will love to have it.
Malai means cream and this is a totally creamy and delicious indulgence! I first made this way back in the summer of 2018 and tried so many versions of Kulfi that was loved by all at home.
So after all these years, I have finally decided to post this simple Malai Kulfi Recipe.
Before we go to the recipe, here are a few other kulfi recipe that I posted on the blog.
Step by step method to prepare Malai Kulfi Recipe
Take corn flour in a bowl. Add milk and mix to form a slurry without lumps.Keep aside.
Heat milk in a pan and bring to boil. Reduce the flame and add sugar. Keep stirring often so that the milk does not burn. Once the milk reduces to half its quantity, add the corn slurry after mixing it once more.
The mixture will thicken after a few minutes. Keep stirring for another 5 minutes. Add finely chopped nuts, cream. Mix well.
Let it cool . Fill into moulds and freeze till set. Once ready to be served, remove from freezer and show under running water and remove the kulfi.[ I had set this in a kulfi mould as well as a popsicle mould.]
Enjoy the delicious Malai Kulfi!

After a really long time, I am joining Blogging Marathon and this post is for Week 1, Day 1 where the theme is Summer coolers and also to the Kid’s delight event with the same theme
This malai kulfi happens to be my ever favorite summer treat! Absolutely loved it as a kid when then kulfi wala came with a bell at night. I remember the thin long slender kulfi mound that they used to shape them. I asked my father to send me those aluminum molds and I have to make this using them.
Now that the girls are not here I can indulge in malai kulfi! They never like any milk items so when I make kulfi they are like sulking! Malai kulfi sounds awesome will try.
Drooling over the kulfi…it’s been a real long time since I had any kulfis or ice creams..you are tempting me PJ..
Even the name of the kulfi is so enticing. I have just started licking my lips 😀
My daughter has been asking me to make icecream/ kulfi for long. Your post has given me a boost to make some for her.
Kulfi’s are our favorite and your malai kulfi is awesome. Feel like taking it from the picture. A perfect recipe for summer.
I love homemade kulfis, malai is right next to mango flavor for me :-)! Lovely clicks..
A real summer treat and a must try recipe in summers. It is such an easy recipe and tastes amazing as well. I skipped cornflour but will try it with that next time.
Kulfi is a must-have treat for summers and malai kulfi is so so delicious and lip-smacking. Would love to eat them anytime
You have just put me in a mood to make some of this for the girls right now! What is needed for the heat…
I am looking forward to our summer to enjoy cool treats. Your kulfi looks so perfect looking and tempting.
