Hi dasanna, u r my all time fav chef, u r more than awesome, too gud … Tried chocolate icecream, it was yum, my little one liked it… Thank you so much… I used amul fresh cream so the peaks were not as stiff as d one shown in d pic..
1) Can v use the collected malai (from milk)at home to make d whipping cream? If yes What s d method?
2) Can you post the sour dough bread method? I have read that it s the traditional way to make d bread n its good
thanks prema for the lovely feedback.
1. yes you can use the collected malai. i used to make cream with collected malai before. stopped as now i do not get little malai on milk after boiling. remove the collected malai from freezer and thaw it for some hours. use the whipping blade of a mixer-grinder or food processor. you can also use a stand mixer. the malai should be cold before you start whipping. take everything in the blender jar or food processor and whip till you get smooth cream. if need be you can add some water while whipping. you can stop here when you get a smooth flowing cream and refrigerate it. this cream can be whipped later to make ice creams or added to gravies. if you don’t want to stop, then continue to whip till you get stiff peaks. the cream from homemade malai is very rich and you will get whipped cream in minutes as more fat content is there.
2. i will try to add sour dough bread method. a few readers have requested for the same.
Hi dassana …..I tried ….but after whipping my amul cream turned into liquid ….what to do…..can u help me with this….please????
do you see any water in it. if water has formed then continue to whip till you see the water (whey or buttermilk) separate and the butter separate. remove the butter with a slotted spoon and keep covered in the fridge. use as butter. if no water is seen, then keep the whipping bowl with the cream in the fridge for 30 to 40 minutes and then again start whipping.
Hi Dassana tried this chocolate ice-cream recipie ,,,,only problem I faced was I didn’t have blender so I tried in a mixer but all the Amul cream turned liquid still I proceeded with the recipie ,,,,,still it’s taste was awesome as one of the branded ice-cream everybody loved ❤❤it ,,,,,I was wondering how would it taste with that stiff peak cream😋😋😋
Thank you Dassana for this perfect ice-cream recipie
Welcome Kavita. Good to know that inspite of the fact that cream not whipping well, the chocolate ice cream still turned out good. It will taste much better if the cream was whipped well.
Hi Dassana
I have baking chocolate blocks. Can I use it for this recipe?if yes how should I add. Thanks a tonne

ruby, you can add some milk and melt the chocolate. melt the chocolate in a double boiler and not directly on a flame. you can use 1/2 cup of chopped chocolate. add about 1/4th to 1/3rd cup of milk and melt the chocolate. instead of milk you can also add cream while melting. let this chocolate mixture come to room temperature. then add condensed milk, vanilla and powdered sugar. mix very well. then follow the recipe.
