I have used the Thermomix for a delicious sorbet before, but as I finally got my Ice cream machine, it was time to take a culinary ice-cream test drive. It tasted just like the strawberry ice-cream I remember as a child, somehow more real than the ice-cream we buy in the stores.
Ingredients
Punnet of strawberries, washed and cleaned
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 cup of sugar
1 cup of milk (full cream)
2 cups of cream
1 teaspoon vanilla essence ( I use a good quality one which is made of real vanilla)
Directions
Put the strawberries and lemon juice, 1/3 sugar in the thermomix, and blitz so that it is pureed. leave for the juices to kind of come out and flavours enhance.
Mix together milk, and the remainder of the sugar whisk till the granules dissolve, then add the cream, whisk. Add the strawberry mixture, whisk till combined, add to ice-cream machine turn on and in 60 minutes the most delicious strawberry ice-cream is born.
Notes
I am not 100% sure how this recipe would work without an ice-cream machine but without the thermy, you could also just chop the strawberries very finely, or puree them with a hand mixer, bullet or other type of food processor. It would also be possible to mush them in a mortar and pestle to get the flavours out.
