EasyDense Indian ice cream made from reduced milk and cream, set in a mold with pistachios and rose water.
Ingredients
- 1 kg chickpeas
- 300g semolina
- 2 tbsp crushed green cardamom pods
- 1 tsp dried fenugreek leaves
- 2 tbsp neutral vegetable oil
- 200g ripe tomatoes
- a handful of fresh mint, chopped
- heavy cream, for serving
- 2 cups coconut milk
Instructions
- 1
Preheat your oven (or set up your steamer or frying station) and lightly grease your pan or molds with neutral vegetable oil.
- 2
In a large bowl, whisk together the roti and garam masala until evenly combined.
- 3
In a separate bowl, blend the ghee with the water until smooth and well incorporated.
- 4
Gently fold the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, taking care not to overmix.
- 5
Transfer everything to your prepared pan or molds and cook — bake, steam, chill, or fry — until set, about 30 mins.
- 6
Remove from the heat and let it cool completely; this helps the texture firm up perfectly.
- 7
Garnish with curry leaves or a dusting of roasted cashews.
- 8
Slice or portion into servings and serve.
Tips
•Bring your ghee to room temperature before mixing for a smoother, more even texture.
•Resist opening the oven door too early — a sudden change in temperature can cause the dessert to sink or crack.
•This keeps well for a couple of days in an airtight container, and the flavor often improves overnight.
