Pista Kulfi
Healthy Hints
Oats don't only bring texture, they are whole grain so they provide fibre too. Choosing a lower fat version of cream helps to keep your fat, and particularly saturated fat, intake down. You could also experiment with other ingredients such as Greek yogurt or fromage frais instead of cream. If you don't want to add sugar — for example if you have diabetes — you could try using a low calorie sweetener. Serve with a handful or fresh berries to improve the nutritional value (and add vibrant colour!)

Directions
1. In a small bowl, mix the oats with the water. Microwave on high for approximately 2–3 minutes or until the oats are cooked and have a thick consistency. Set aside to cool down completely.
2. In a medium sized bowl, add the cooked oats, pistachio, evaporated milk, half and half, sugar and cardamom. Mix using an electric mixer or blender until you have a smooth and creamy texture.
3. Lightly whisk the whipped topping until it holds its shape and gently fold it into the mixture.
4. Pour the entire mixture into 9 individual moulds, cover, and freeze for 4–5 hours until set.
5. To unmould, allow the mould to remain outside for 2–3 minutes; insert a fork in the centre of the kulfi and pull it out. Alternatively, you may dip the mould briefly into warm water, open the cover and slide out the kulfi.
6. Garnish with strawberry slices or mint leaves.
