Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 500 g frozen strawberries
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- 500 ml whipping cream
- 75 g condensed milk
Optional Ingredients
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp honey
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Blend Strawberry Mixture: In a blender or liquidizer, add the frozen strawberries (reserve a few for chopping later), lemon juice, condensed milk, and 100 ml of the whipping cream. Blend the mixture until smooth, scraping down the sides of the blender occasionally with a spatula to ensure even blending.
- Whip Remaining Cream: In a large mixing bowl, add the remaining 400 ml of whipping cream. Beat it with a mixer or whisk until stiff peaks form, meaning the cream holds its shape firmly.
- Combine Mixtures: Pour the blended strawberry mixture into the whipped cream. Add the chopped frozen strawberries you set aside earlier. Gently fold everything together using a spatula, ensuring the strawberry mixture is evenly incorporated without losing too much airiness.
- Freeze: Transfer the combined mixture into a container or tin suitable for freezing. Cover it tightly and place it in the freezer for at least two hours to set and firm up into ice cream.
- Serve: Once fully frozen, scoop and serve the ice cream as desired. Enjoy your refreshing no churn strawberry ice cream!
Notes
- Blend the frozen strawberries with a bit of cream and condensed milk to help liquefy the mixture smoothly.
- Use a spatula to scrape down the sides of the blender between blending for better consistency.
- Adding chunks of frozen strawberries into the ice cream mixture adds texture and bursts of fresh strawberry flavor.
- If desired, enhance flavor with optional vanilla, honey, or a pinch of salt.
