Equipment

Handheld electric mixer
non-stick pan
Medium-sized freezer-safe container

Ingredients

Strawberry sauce

350- 400 grams Fresh strawberries
60 grams Caster Sugar
1 teaspoons Lemon Juice
1 tablespoon Freeze-dried strawberry powder (Not required but can be used if preferred)

Cream Mixture

600 ml Double Cream (Heavy Cream)
200 grams Sweetened Condensed Milk (not evaporated milk)

Instructions

Strawberry sauce

Hull strawberries and chop them into small pieces.
Add strawberries into the pan, then add sugar, Lemon juice, (and strawberry powder if you desire to use this in the recipe)
Gently bring to the boil and then lower to simmer stirring until the strawberries are soft. Then remove from the heat.
Using a handheld blender, Blend down the mixture until almost smooth. If you prefer some chunks of strawberries in your ice cream just remove half the mixture before blending. Then add the strawberry chunks back into the sauce when finished blending.
Transfer into a jug and once cool place in the fridge.

Cream Mixture

Once the sauce mixture is fully cooled start making the cream mixture as you do not want to add warm sauce to your cream. The sauce needs to be fully cooled before combining.
Add the double cream and condensed milk into a large bowl. Using a handheld mixer whisk until thick and creamy with soft peaks.
Ensure that the sauce mixture is fully cooled and pour into the cream mixture folding it in gently.
Transfer the ice cream mixture into your freezer-safe container spreading evenly and place the lid on top to seal. Leave to set in the freezer for 6-8 hours but preferably overnight.
Enjoy!

Notes

Always wait until the strawberry sauce has fully cooled before adding to the cream mixture as a warm sauce will cause the cream to separate.

NOTE: Always check that all your ingredients are gluten free. If adding any extra toppings always check the label as they may contain gluten.

STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS: This can be stored in an airtight container in the freezer for you to enjoy for up to 3 months. I recommend you remove the ice cream from the freezer at least 15 minutes before serving this will make it easier to scoop from the container.
