Clotted Cream and Strawberry Ice Cream.

Prep time:
15 minutes

Freezing time:
8 hours

Serves:
6-8

Ingredients
2 large free-range eggs
125g caster sugar
2 x 227g tub Rodda’s Cornish Clotted Cream
250ml full-fat milk

Method
* Whisk the eggs in a large bowl until light and frothy. Add the sugar gradually and whisk for a further 3 minutes. Add the clotted cream and milk into the egg mixture and whisk well.

* Spoon the mixture into an ice cream maker and freeze according to the manufacturer’s instructions. If you’re not using an ice cream maker, spoon into a 2-litre freezer proof container and freeze for 3 hours. Remove form the freezer and whisk until smooth. Return to the freezer for another 3 hours. Repeat this process 3-4 times, and then freeze for 2 hours, until semi-solid.

* Place the strawberries in a food processor and whiz until nearly smooth, a few pieces of strawberry adds texture. When the ice cream has started to freeze but still soft, gently fold through the strawberries to create a rippled effect. Transfer to a plastic container and freeze until solid. When ready to serve remove from the freezer for 5 minutes or until slightly softened.
