Paan ice cream recipe with step by step photos. Sharing a wonderful dessert recipe with you all today. Paan ice cream recipe is an easy to make homemade ice cream recipe with very few ingredients.
This paan ice cream recipe is eggless and no milk powder is also used here. Just the goodness of milk, fresh cream, pan leaves and gulkand. I have added fennel seeds and cardamom powder for flavor. This is an absolutely Indian flavored ice cream. The taste of this paan ice cream recipe is a cross between thandai and meeta pan.
To make paan ice cream recipe I have used very tender paan leaves so the flavor is not very sharp. The flavor and taste of gukand is beautifully complimented by paan leaves in this paan ice cream recipe. Since we are not using ice cream maker, we need to hand churn the ice cream for breaking the ice crystals. Though you can use a electric beater I always prefer to use a fork for this as it is less messy and less clean up work :). If you have an ice cream maker use it by all means 🙂
Serve paan ice cream as dessert after a heavy meal as it also aids in digestion
