No-churn mango ice cream
When the world went into lockdown a couple of years ago, people across the world took to their kitchens, whipping up at-home renditions of their favourite dishes and some unique ones. One contender on the list was a no-churn mango ice cream, made with just three ingredients – mango puree, condensed milk and whipped cream. The indulgent dessert is flavourful, and can easily be jazzed up according to your preferences!
Ingredients:
- 2 cups mango puree
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1 can condensed milk (400 g) – use less if the mangoes are too sweet
- Additional flavourings such as cardamom, saffron, rosewater and petals or vanilla (optional)
Method:
- Remove the pulp and puree mangoes until you get about two cups. Mix it well with the condensed milk and any additional flavourings you may want to add, and let it chill in the fridge.
- Whip up the cream in a large bowl, until it forms stiff peaks.
- Gently fold in the mango mixture with the cream and mix until well-combined. Put this mixture into a container and freeze until it’s set (about 8 hours or overnight).
- To serve, scoop up the ice cream, top with rose petals and chopped mangoes. Add some toasted nuts for some crunch, and enjoy! Read More...
