Strawberry
Icecream Recipe
Just taste this and die!
This Gorgeous
Strawberry Icecream
Recipe, packed full of Mediterranean
Berries, will bring back childhood memories of your first taste
of this
wonderful easy dessert. It really does have that
old fashioned taste of strawberries and cream, because the
fruit has not been pulverized in a
blender, just mashed roughly so that it keeps its
real taste and
texture.
Again I am using my standard, favorite, custard recipe as the base, to
create a luxurious creamy mouth feel.
Use any soft fruit for this recipe - Raspberries, Blueberries, Black
currants,
Blackberries, Red currants - it's very versatile.
If this strawberry icecream recipe is for adults you can add 50ml of
Framboise liquerwhen
you add the yogurt and strawberries, to give a little French zing!

We love Ice Cream, it's so easy to make with an Ice Cream
Maker. Here's a great little Ice Cream Maker,
that'll get you started without breaking the bank. Serious ice cream
makers might prefer the Supreme with its own compressor.
Mash the strawberries roughly (I use a potato
masher) with half of the
sugar.
Put
into the fridge whilst making the rest of
this recipe.
Put the egg yolks and sugar and cornflour into
a bowl
and whisk until you get a smooth paste.
Put the cream into a saucepan and over a medium
heat
bring to just under the boil.
Take the pan off the heat and gradually whisk
in the egg yolk
mixture.
Put the pan back on to medium heat and stir
constantly until the custard has thickened and coats the back of the
wooden spoon. It needs
to be very hot
to do this but do not allow the custard to boil or it will scramble.
Take the pan off the heat and pour the custard
into a
bowl. Cover the
surface of the custard with cling film, which prevents a skin forming.
Allow to cool before chilling in the fridge.
Once chilled remove from fridge and take off
the
cling film.
Stir in the Greek Yogurt and the mashed
strawberry
mixture.
Pour this into an Ice
Cream Maker and churn
until
thickened.
Spoon into a suitable plastic lidded container
and
freeze.
Its a good
idea to take
the ice cream out of the freezer about 15 mins
before serving...this makes it easier to scoop.
