Clotted Cream & Strawberry Ice Cream

I have the biggest sweet tooth and am a huge lover of ice cream. Not just any kind, as the cheap stuff doesn't do it for me....Ben & Jerry's, Carte D'Or (the praline one tastes just like Nutella!!!!) and real handmade Italian gelato!!


There's nothing I like more than going on a stroll with an ice cream cone with 2 or 3 scoops....be rude not to try several flavours, and just enjoying the taste and company I'm with.


I love Cornish ice cream with fresh strawberries and wanted to make an ice cream that conjures up my love of this.....and boy have I hit the jackpot with this bad boy of an ice cream!!


It's so rich and creamy, but not sickly and the strawberry swirl compliments it perfectly.


You could add some crumbled shortbread biscuits into the mix before freezing so make it a strawberry shortcake ice cream!


Ingredients:

• 2 large eggs
• 125g caster sugar
• 2x 227g tubs of clotted cream
• 250ml full fat milk
• 1 pallet strawberries

Whisk the eggs in a large bowl until light and fluffy. Gradually add the sugar and whisk for several minutes until well combined. Add the clotted cream and milk and whisk well.


Pour the mixture into an ice cream machine, according to the manufactures instructions.


Hull and halve the strawberries, then blitz to a lumpy purée. Once the cream is almost frozen but not solid, add the purée mixture in slowly whilst swirling to create a ripple effect.


Transfer to a freezer proof container and freeze until solid.


Take out of the freezer 5-10 minutes prior to serving to ensure it is soft enough to scoop.
