Coconut and Mango Ice cream
A rich and fruity ice cream.
Preparation:
- Pour the cream and Coconut Milk into a pan and heat gently, stirring frequently, until the mixture starts to simmer.
- Put the eggs, sugar and vanilla essence in a large bowl. Using an electric whisk, blend until the mixture is very light and fluffy.
- Then pour this into the pan with the cream mixture, simmer and continue to whisk until the mixture thickens.
- Remove from the heat and cool. Puree the Mango and add to the custard mixture. Whisk until combined with the custard and chill in the refrigerator until it's completely cold.
- Pour the mixture into a plastic tub or freeze-proof container. Freeze for 4 hours, beating two or three times at hourly intervals with a fork to break up the ice crystals. Alternatively, use an ice cream machine.
- About 30 minutes before serving, transfer the container to the refrigerator so that the ice cream can soften slightly. Serve in scoops.
