The double-cream used to prepare Bastani Akbar-Mashti should be extra thick. Leave the double-cream in the freezer until frozen. Cream or ice-cream should not be very hard. Cut frozen double-cream into small pieces and mix with ice-cream. Add rose-water and mix well. Place the mix in the freezer for at least one hour.
