Strawberry Ripple Ice Cream Recipes

Steps:

• Beat the double cream using an electric whisk until it holds its shape. Keep beating on a lower speed and gradually pour in the condensed milk and vanilla extract, then slowly add the lemon zest and juice. Put the mixture in a shallow baking tin or container that will fit in your freezer.
• Drop the jam all over the surface in little blobs using a teaspoon, then drag a skewer through the blobs to spread it out a little. Some jam will disappear from the surface but that's okay. Cover the container and put it in the freezer for at least 3 hrs. This is a soft-set ice cream, so you don't need to take it out of the freezer too far ahead of serving. Will keep in the freezer for up to three months.

Steps:

• Put the strawberries in a food processor or blender. Whizz to a purée, then add the lemon juice to taste - if the strawberries are quite tart you'll only need a little.
• Warm the cream and milk in a pan until just steaming, not boiling. Whisk the sugar and egg yolks in a bowl for a minute or two until pale yellow. Slowly pour the hot cream mixture into the eggs, whisking as you do. Once fully incorporated, strain through a sieve back into the pan. Gently cook over a low-medium heat until it thickens slightly - it should coat the back of your spoon and leave a channel if you run your finger through it (this will happen at about 82-85C). Be careful not to overcook it as the eggs will scramble. Transfer to a bowl. Cover and cool for 10 mins, then chill for 1 hr.
• Stir the strawberry purée and vanilla through the cold custard. Taste to see if it needs a little more lemon or vanilla.
• Freeze the ice cream in an ice cream maker, or container in the freezer. If you don't have an ice cream maker, freeze for 4 hrs, whisking vigorously or blending in a food processor every hour to remove any ice crystals. Will keep in the freezer for up to two months.
