Ingredients
For the Paan Masala Paste:
- 3 Betel Leaves paan leaves
- 10 Almonds blanched and roughly chopped
- 4 Cardamom Pods green cardamom, lightly crushed
- 1 tbsp Fennel Seeds
- 4 tbsp Sugar
- 1 tbsp Gulkand rose petal jam
Instructions
Prepare the Paan Masala Paste
- Combine betel leaves, almonds, cardamom pods, fennel seeds, sugar, and gulkand in a food processor or blender. Blend until a smooth paste forms. Set aside.
Reduce the Milk
- Pour the milk into a heavy-bottomed saucepan. Add a pinch of salt. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the milk is reduced by half – approximately 500ml. This process will take about 20-30 minutes. Stir frequently to prevent burning.
Combine and Simmer
- Add the paan masala paste to the reduced milk. Stir well to combine. Bring to a gentle simmer for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool completely.
Freeze the Ice Cream
- Once completely cool, transfer the mixture to an airtight container suitable for freezing. Cover tightly and freeze for at least 8 hours, or preferably overnight, until solid. Stir the mixture halfway through the freezing process for a smoother texture (approximately 4 hours in).
Serve and Enjoy
- Scoop the Paan Masala ice cream into bowls and serve immediately. Garnish with chopped pistachios or a sprinkle of rose petals for an elegant touch.
Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for the Best Paan Masala Ice Cream
- For a smoother ice cream, strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve after simmering to remove any fibrous bits from the paan leaves.
- Adjust the amount of sugar according to your preference. Taste the mixture before freezing and add more if needed.
- If you don't have gulkand, you can substitute it with a teaspoon of rose water or a few drops of rose extract for a similar floral aroma.
- For a richer, more intense flavor, let the paan masala paste sit for 30 minutes before adding it to the milk. This will allow the flavors to meld.
