¾ cup condensed milk
1 can (170g) evaporated milk
¼ cup warm milk
½ tsp saffron threads
¼ cup chopped pistachios
1 tbsp ground basmati rice
1 tbsp almond powder

Instead of heavy cream and evaporated milk, if you want to go by the traditional way, start with 3 1/2 cups of milk and reduce it to 1 1/2 cups of milk and then continue with the recipe
Kulfi is not only creamy but slightly chewy. Ground rice helps to thicken the mixture as well as gives a beautiful chewy texture when frozen.

Method
Mix the warm milk and saffron and keep aside.
Heat the evaporated milk until it comes to a soft boil and add the cream.
Once the cream comes to a soft boil, add the warm milk, condensed milk, rice powder and almond powder.
Whisk so that no lumps remain. Heat the mixture for about 10 minutes until it thickens to the consistency of heavy cream.
Transfer to stainless steel molds or popsicle molds.
Freeze for upto 6 hours or till frozen.
To unmold keep it out of the fridge for 5 minutes and pull it out with a stick.
Garnish with chopped pistachio.

1/4 cup water
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
Sake cream:
1/2 cup sake
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon brown sugar
Dash of salt
1 tablespoon heavy cream
3 cups orange sections (about 6 oranges)
Remaining ingredient:
3 cups vanilla fat-free ice cream

Method
To prepare brittle, line a baking sheet with foil; coat the foil with cooking spray.
Combine granulated sugar and 1/4 cup water in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook until sugar dissolves, stirring gently to dissolve sugar evenly. Cook 4 minutes or until golden (do not stir). Remove from heat; carefully stir in sesame seeds. Rapidly spread mixture onto prepared baking sheet. Cool completely; break into small pieces.

Ingredients
Honeycomb:
4 tbsp sugar
2 tbsp golden syrup
1 tsp baking soda
Ice-cream:
4 egg yolks
1 cup caster sugar
500ml cream (35-38 per cent fat)
Makes 2 litres.

Method
Hokey pokey -
Line a flat baking tray with non-stick baking paper.
Place sugar and golden syrup in a large pot over a low heat and stir constantly until the mixture comes to the boil. (A pot with a wide base will help prevent the liquid bubbling up over the edge.)
Simmer for five minutes over a very gentle heat, stirring occasionally to make sure it doesn't burn. Remove the pot from the heat and add the baking soda, quickly stirring until the mixture froths. Immediately pour the mixture onto the lined tray and cool. Once the hokey pokey has cooled, break into rough chunks.
Ice-cream -
Beat sugar and egg yolks in a bowl with an electric mixer until pale and creamy.
In another bowl, whip cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold sugar and egg yolk mix into the cream then stir through chunks of hokey pokey. Pour into a two-litre plastic container with a tight fitting lid and freeze overnight or until firm.
Leftover hokey pokey can be added to ice-cream, biscuits and cakes or dipped into melted chocolate, for a homemade crunchie.

Method
Pour about 2 tbsp of orange juice (using 1/2 cup of orange juice) into each of four large popsicle molds (if molds are smaller, you will be able to make more pops). Place in the freezer for 20-25 minutes, until orange juice starts to freeze. It should not be completely frozen.
In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup orange juice with yogurt, orange zest and confectioners’ sugar. Whisk vigorously until very well combined.
Pour yogurt mixture into popsicle molds on top of partially frozen orange juice. Insert popsicle sticks and close molds. Freeze until solid, about 4-6 hours.
