You don’t need to be a chef to understand how to make strawberry ice cream – it’s easier than it seems and takes little time.
Ingredients:
- 600g fresh strawberries
- 50g granulated sugar
- 400g coconut cream or chilled canned full-fat coconut milk*
- 320g sweetened condensed coconut milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp lime juice
- 2 tsp arrowroot powder or cornstarch
Directions:
- Wash strawberries, remove stems. Cut into small cubes, place in a bowl.
- Sprinkle with sugar, stir, cover, and leave for 20-30 minutes until the berries release their juice. Separate the syrup from the berries into a separate container.
- Grind the berries with a blender until smooth.
- Add the collected strawberry syrup to the saucepan, add arrowroot, and lime juice. Stir with a whisk until the starch is completely dissolved. Place over medium heat, bring to a gentle boil, and cook for a couple of minutes until thickened, stirring constantly. Cool to room temperature.
- In a deep bowl, beat the coconut cream with a mixer for 2-3 minutes until slightly fluffy.
- Add the condensed coconut milk and vanilla, and beat for another minute.
- Add the strawberry puree in small portions (½ cup), stirring each time.
- Add half of the strawberry sauce to the finished mass, put it in the form in which you will freeze the ice cream, and pour the remaining sauce on top.
- Cover and freeze for at least 2 hours.
