Custard Ice Cream

Summer is here and Doha is completely scorching... the heat is increasing day by day and i have this craving for ice cream, but really dont want to have a store bought, so planned to make some home made ice cream and was going thru the pantry for the ingredients i have at hand... Here it is i got the custard powder and got the thought of making this custard ice cream.

Basically i love custards as they are always close to my heart so just thought why not make ice cream with it which makes a great combo and gives a great taste...

Technically this is the 1st post on ice cream on my blog... previously i have a post on Rosemilk Popsicle which is filled with most of ours childhood memories...

Talking about this recipe, this is very much easier than most of other ice cream recipes... I love the way everything comes togather within minutes and the creamy texture of this ice cream.

Lets start chilling...


Ingredients:

Milk 2 cups + 3 tbsp cold
Cream 3 tbsp
Sugar 1/2 cup (adjust to your taste)
Custard powder 3 tbsp

Method:

Add the 2 cups milk to a saucepan with the sugar and bring to boil, meanwhile add the custard powder to the 3 tbsp cold milk and mix well without any lumps.

Once the milk has started to boil, simmer and add the custard mixture to the milk and keep stirring for 2 mins or till the mixture resembles a creamy thick consistency.


Let this mixture cool down a bit, and then add the cream to it and whip the mixture in a blender for few seconds.

Add the mixture to a freezer safe bowl and freeze it for an hour, now again add it to the blender and whip it till creamy.

Repeat this whipping process for 3 more times to avoid the icy formation and get a creamy texture.

After all whipping has been done freeze for 6 hours.

Leave the container outside the freezer for 5 minutes before scooping, this time will make the ice cream soft and scoop-able...

Serve with your favorite topping.
