Summer is all about mango and each time it brings back the loving memories of my dearest mother in law who was an intense mango lover. Mangoes literally ruled her heart and she believed that no other food can match the aroma and taste of this incredible fruit and here I dedicate this dish to the doting lady” Ma”. Although I keep on trying creative recipes with mango, believe me the mango stuffed kulfi is beyond compare. It is a simple dish where the milk is reduced by boiling and sweetened and then stuffed in the mango. A must try recipe, simple yet amazing.
