Home made Gooseberry Ice Cream

 

In a spur of the moment type happening, I bought myself a basket of Gooseberries. Although I hadn't a clue what to do with them. So on-air I put out a request for recipes.

Pauline in Headington sent in this one. (by text, so it was very brief, so i've filled in with the extra bits and my experiences)

Gooseberry Yogurt Ice Cream

Gooseberries - 450 gramms (1llb)
Caster Sugar - 250 gramms (8 Oz)
Double Cream - 285 gramms (10 Oz)
Yogurt - 500g (18 Oz)

Mix the husked gooseberries with the sugar and with a four table spoons of water, stew (bring to a boil and then simmer for around 20 mins) allow it to turn in to a pulp and then let it cool.

Whip the cream until thick and then add in the yogurt and mix in the gooseberry stewy stuff.

Place it in to a tub and put into the freezer, give it a mix every 90-120mins so that it becomes nice and softly frozen.

Lovely.
