"I don't believe this is home made"!! A simple remark by a guest at our home sent my spirits soaring. After all it is not every day that my home made ice cream gets mistaken for a branded one!!
Okay so initially I was pretty sceptical about this recipe. I couldn't figure out how it was possible to make really good ice cream without any ice cream maker, eggs or even a thickener like cornflour. And yes, the process seemed too simple to be true! I kept putting off making it till one day I finally tried it and guess what??? It was amazing!! I made it innumerable times after that but it took the prompting of our guest to make me post the recipe.
Make summer a little bearable, a little fun by making this delicious ice cream!!
Ingredients:
1 tin condensed milk
1/2 cup milk
1 tsp vanilla essence
Pinch of salt
Method: Whip cream with an electric beater till stiff. Add milk, vanilla essence and pinch of salt. Gradually add the condensed milk. Check after you have folded in almost 3/4 of the tin. If the sweetness is right do not add more. If you like it really sweet then add the entire tin. Use the beater at low speed to mix everything nicely. Pour into an airtight container and place in the freezer. After 3 to 4 hours take out the container and break up the partially set ice cream using a fork or a spoon. Place it back in the freezer. Repeat this procedure for another two times at least. Then allow it to set completely. Serve with fruit, chocolate sauce or as it is.
You can add choco chips, crunch, nuts or cookies in the last stage ie when you break up the ice cream for the last time before allowing it to set.
To seal the container more firmly place a sheet of wax paper on top and then cover it with a length of cling film before placing the lid.
