Boil milk in a heavy-bottomed pan over medium heat until it reduces by half, stirring frequently.

Add sugar and condensed milk to the reduced milk, mixing well until dissolved.

Stir in heavy cream and continue to cook for 5-7 minutes, allowing the mixture to thicken slightly.

Add crushed cardamom, chopped pistachios, and almonds, mixing until evenly distributed.

Dissolve cornstarch in a small amount of milk and add to the mixture, cooking for another 2-3 minutes until thickened.

Remove from heat and add saffron, rose water, and vanilla extract, stirring well to combine.

Let the mixture cool to room temperature before pouring it into kulfi molds.

Cover the molds with lids or plastic wrap and freeze for at least 6 hours or until solid.

To serve, dip the molds briefly in warm water to loosen the kulfi.

Invert the molds onto serving plates and gently pull to release the kulfi.

Garnish with additional chopped nuts if desired.
