Paan kulfi is an excellent take on using paan leaves or betal leaves in dessert. I have already shared wonderful dessert recipes using paan leaves namely paan ice cream and paan shots recipes. This paan kulfi recipe is one more tasty and refreshing dessert you can make with paan leaves. Paan leaves as such are very good for health and can be used i various Indian recipes.

Kulfi as most of you know is a frozen dessert from India. Kulfi is  often known as Indian ice cream but it is far different from an ice cream. Kulfi is not smooth and it does not melt in mouth as an ice cream. It has a texture and authentically made by reducing milk for long time. There are many recipes for making kulfi easily like adding cream, condensed milk etc but I always prefer to make kulfi by reducing the milk and adding khoya to it. The taste, flavor and texture of kulfi made with khoya and milk is absolutely delicious. Here in this paan kulfi recipe, the paan gulkand paste is added after reducing the milk and then frozen.

To make paan kulfi recipe we need whole milk, sugar, unsweetened khoya, paan leaves, fennel seeds, cardamom pods. I have used some pistachios to make kulfi more green 🙂 If you want a pale green kulfi omit pistachios. For a very mild paan flavor, reduce paan leaves accordingly. You can garnish with glazed cherries, paan mix if you wish or even chopped nuts.

Serve paan kulfi thoroughly chilled and frozen as dessert.
