I have made this AMAZING ice-cream a couple of times, it is an AMAZING color. I found it in my 'Silver Spoon for Kids' cookbook. The cookbook is very good. It is a berry ice-cream. Basically, all you do is mash up some berries (any berries will do) with sugar and lemon then fold it in cream! I think that this ice cream recipe is one of the only recipes that you can make without an ice-cream maker. I will give you the recipe so you can try it in your kitchen. You will need a food processor.
Ingredients:
- 284ml double Cream
- 400g of frozen berries such as blackberries, raspberry's, redcurrants or blackcurrants
- half a lemon
- 175g of golden caster sugar
This recipe makes enough for 6-8 people.
1. Pour the cream into a big bowl and using a hand whisk or electric whisk, whisk until it holds in soft peaks-when you lift the whisk out it should look like snowy mountains (if you whisk the cream to long it becomes firm & stiff).
2. Put the frozen berries into the food processor. Squeeze the lemon juice over the fruit, add the sugar and whiz until mashed up.
3. Spoon the mashed berries into the whipped cream and carefully fold everything together.Spoon into a freeze proof container (I used a ice-cream container) and cover with a tight fitting lid and freeze for 3 hours or until frozen.
Hope you enjoy! :)
