Ingredients for - Rich nutmeg ice cream
How to cook deliciously - Rich nutmeg ice cream
1. Stage
Heat the double cream and the full-cream milk in a pan until just starting to boil.
2. Stage
Meanwhile whisk the egg yolks and sugar in a large bowl. When milk and cream mix is ready, steadily pour it over the yolks, whisking continuously.
3. Stage
Pour back into a clean pan, then heat gently, stirring, for about 10 mins until the mix thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon. Strain custard through a sieve into another large bowl, stir in the freshly-grated nutmeg, then cool.
4. Stage
Churn in an ice cream machine or pour into a freezer-proof container, then freeze for about 1½ hrs until frozen around the edges. Stir the frozen edges into the mix, then repeat this twice more or until the ice cream is smooth and thick. Leave for at least 4 hrs to freeze before serving with Sticky orange & marsala pudding (see link, right).
