• 1/4 cup Cashews (0:54)
• 1/2 cup Dried Rose Petals (0:58)
• 1/2 cup Raisins (for sweetness) (1:01)

• 1/2 tsp Cardamom Powder (1:28)

Steps

1. Prepare the Mixture: Combine all ingredients for your chosen flavor (nuts, makhana, fruits, and coconut milk) and let them soak for at least 2 hours to soften. (0:42, 1:12)
2. Blend: After soaking, transfer the mixture to a blender. Add cocoa powder for the chocolate version (1:25) or gulkand and cardamom for the rose version. (1:29) Blend until you achieve a smooth, creamy paste. (1:31)
3. Set the Ice Cream: Transfer the mixture into a container (or even a recycled date tin!). (1:43) Cover with a plastic wrapper directly touching the surface to prevent ice crystals. (1:58)

Tips

• Prevent Ice Crystals: Make sure to place a piece of plastic wrap or foil directly on top of the mixture inside the container before freezing to ensure a creamy texture without ice crystals. (1:55)
• Adjust Sweetness: If you prefer a sweeter ice cream, add more dates or raisins to the soaking mixture, or use fresh rose petals instead of dried for a different flavor profile. (0:35, 2:53)
