orange kulfi recipe | kulfi orange in orange shells | orange kesar pista kulfi with detailed photo and video recipe. a classical indian ice cream dessert recipe made with fresh orange pearls with milk powder and full cream milk. unlike the other traditional kulfi recipes, this kulfi has a strong combination of flavour from orange, kesar and dry fruits. thus making one of the sought after kulfi recipe from the indian dessert section. in particular, this kulfi is made more attractive by using orange shells to shape it but not mandatory though.
even though i am not a huge fan of ice cream or kulfi recipe, but i am flattered with this orange flavoured dessert. just the combination of the sweet and sour taste of orange when mixed with creamy kulfi texture, is just amazing and out of this world. moreover, when it is loaded or stuffed inside the orange cups, there is more addition of citrus juice to the creamy ice cream and thus making an enjoyable experience. basically, the whole kick is about the addition of citrus flavour to the creamy ice cream. in addition, when the cream is stuffed inside the orange cups, it makes it more attractive and presentable. especially when it served to the guests, it makes a perfect and surprising dessert recipe. having said that, if you are planning to make this in bulk, it is better to go with the kulfi moulds or cups for faster turnouts.
furthermore, some more additional, tips, suggestions and variants to the orange kulfi recipe. firstly, try to pick and choose fresh and stiff oranges which would not easily lose their shape. especially while scooping out, a fresh one would still hold shape and also may not crumble while it is stuffed. secondly, you may follow the same procedure with other types of fruit too. you may stuff kulfi ice cream to mangoes, mandarin, melons etc. lastly, while freezing these oranges, try to fix the cap as much as possible without any gap. if you feel there is some gap, you may use cling wrap to cover it before freezing it.
