Rabdi ice cream


Ingredients
200 ml dairy cream (I used Amul fresh cream)
Rabdi (made from 500ml milk)
Method
Whip the cream (make sure it should b chilled, so dat you can whipped easy) Around 15 to 20min. up to soft peak. Add rabdi and whip again around 5 minutes. I whip and freeze in same box. Keep in freezer up to 12 hours . Your ice cream is ready

For rabdi the most important part of ice cream
Take 500 ml full cream milk in n a sauce pan boil it add 100 GM of sugar (adjust acc to your taste) take 10-10  piece of cashew, almond pistachio and crushed them.not very fine paste, add dry fruits in boiling milk, make sure continuously stir the milk otherwise it will burn from bottom. Add 1/2 teaspoon cardamom powder, few threads of saffron (Dissolved in water). Take 1/4 teaspoon of turmeric dissolve in water and keep it aside for settle . Then add this liquid part of turmeric only in rabdi. Cook till reduce the quantity around 3/4 cup. The consistency of rabdi should be thick otherwise ice crystals will be  formed in ice cream.
Enjoy your yummy and healthy ice cream.
For me it's really healthy. Because its has goodness of milk,dry fruits,saffron,turmeric. etc.
For further query ask me in Comment box .
If you want more creamy texture then you can add non dairy whipped cream too. But since I want healthy version, so I made with fresh cream.
Try other flavour also
Cream + condensed milk+ flavour of your choice.
Like for tutti fruti ice cream take 200 GM of fresh cream (add 1 tablespoon non dairy whip cream for more creamy texture) 100 GM of condensed milk ( try homemade condensed milk), mix fruti essence, handful of tutti fruti (just fold in ice cream at last), colour ( try to use natural colour (turmeric,beetroot,orange powder etc)
