Pin It

I have been down with fever since last few days. So, here is a recipe which has been sitting in my drafts for quite some time. Mango ice cream ... made with a cooked custard mixture, mango puree and cream.

Mango Ice Cream
********************

*  Makes : About 1 liter

Ingredients :

• 500 ml. milk
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup dry milk powder
• 2 tbsp. vanilla / mango custard powder
• 1 cup mango puree, chilled
• 200 ml. whipping cream, chilled
• 1/4 tsp. mango essence

Method :

• Combine 400 ml. milk and sugar in a heavy saucepan. 
• Place the saucepan over a medium heat and stir until the sugar dissolves.
• In a small bowl, mix milk powder, custard powder & remaining milk.
• Slowly add this mixture to the milk in the pan and cook, stirring constantly until the custard thickens slightly and coats the back of a wooden spoon.
• Immediately transfer it into a clean bowl & leave to cool. 
• Combine cooled custard, mango puree, cream and mango essence in a large bowl. Mix well.
• Pour the mixture in an airtight plastic container, cover and place it in the freezer for about 30 - 40 minutes until the mixture is starting to set around edges of container.
• Remove from the freezer and beat the mixture until smooth. Return to freezer for another 30 - 40 minutes.
• Repeat this process for at least two more times.
• Allow the mixture to freeze over night or until set. 
• Scoop out the ice cream and serve immediately.

Note :

• Adjust the amount of sugar according to your taste, as mangoes come in many varieties, each varying in taste.
