Notes
- Condensed Milk - This gives the kulfi its density and adds sweetness. If, for some reason, you add unsweetened condensed milk, you will need to adjust the sugar.
- Cardamom - If you don't have a mortar and pestle, remove the seeds from the pod and crush them in your grinder. I highly recommend using cardamom seeds as crushing them releases their essential oils, making for a more aromatic Kulfi.

- Pistachios - I use a small nut grinder for this, but if you don't have one, put the nuts in a Ziploc bag and use a rolling pin to roughly crush the pieces. You don't want them to be too large. I like to use salted Pistachios as the salt helps enhance all the other flavors in the mixture.
