Vanilla Ice-cream

Vanilla Ice-Cream


1 1/2 cups milk
2 cups thickened cream
1 vanilla bean, seeds scraped (or vanilla paste)
4 egg yolks
110g sugar

Heat milk, cream and vanilla in a saucepan until almost boiling,
In a large bowl whisk yolks and sugar until well combined.
Whisk milk mixture into egg mixture.
Poor egg mixture back into saucepan and stir on low heat until mixture thickens
and coats the back of your spoon. 
Poor into bowl (stainless steel works well) and cool.


Once cool put mixture into fridge and chill for a few hours.
Then pour into ice-cream maker and make manufactures instruction.

If you do not have a an ice-cream maker beat mixture and put in freezer, do this every 15 min until it is the right consistency.

If you wish to add anything to your ice-cream such as lollies, crunchy bars, choc chops add it now then put it in a container in the freezer.

I use the left over egg whites to make Meringue.
