My wife helps me in the process. Some full fat milk and some wheat flour cooked for about an hour over the oven and the milk gets dense and thick and creamy. Then frozen in cylindrical moulds overnight. To get a cool and sweet milk dessert, the Indian version of ice cream. Then on a van I place my mud pot, cover it with a red cloth that I will keep soaking wet throughout the day. It keeps my kulfi moulds cool and frozen. And with many leaf bowls and small wooden spoons I move around the city. The sun goes up and it is hot and I am all sweaty.
