Y
Yoghurt Ice Cream
Ingredients:
- 10 fl oz whole-milk plain yoghurt
- 4 oz your favourite fruit
- Sugar to taste
Dissolve a little sugar in water in a saucepan and add the fruit. Simmer for 5
minutes until soft and then puree through a sieve. If you have a food processor
or liquidiser doesn’t cook the fruit - just whiz it to a puree, adding sugar, a
teaspoon at a time, until it is to your taste. Beat the puree into the yoghurt,
pour into a plastic container and put it in the freezer.
When it has set, take it out, spoon it back into the food processor or
liquidiser and give it a quick whiz. This gets rid of any little particles of
ice that may have formed. If you don't have a machine, spoon the mixture into a
bowl and whisk it thoroughly. Pour it back into the plastic container and freeze
again.
When you're ready to eat it, leave it in the fridge for half an hour before
serving.
