Method of Preparation :
Pour the boiling water into a bowl, stir in a cardamom seeds and leave for 15 minutes to infuse.
Meanwhile, put the condensed milk into a blender together with cold water, pistachio nuts, almonds and almond essence. Process the mixture until very finely mixed. Add the cooled and strained cardamom water and pour into a bowl. Whip the cream until soft peaks form. Whisk into the mixture. Pour into a container and freeze until semi-frozen around the edges and mushy in the centre.
Transfer the mixture to a bowl and mash well with a fork. Divide the mixture evenly between 6-8 small moulds and freeze for at least 4 hours or overnight until firm. To serve, dip the base of each mould quickly into hot water and run a knife around the top edge. Turn out on to serving plate. |
