Jackfruit seed kulfi/ Halasina beejada kulfi

Jackfruit seed is my new obsession which was always a favourite to me. When I saw a post of jack seed milkshake, I was super excited to try & it was so tasty. I posted the recipe in this blog too! Then this idea of kulfi came from my better half. That unique creamy texturte & thickening property of these seeds work really great in kulfi. This recipe is very special to me as this is a winning recipe for me (2^nd winner) in a Instagram contest  #Starchefchallenge2020. Follow me @nishamithoor in Instagram for the updates!
