HOME MADE STRAWBERRY ICE CREAM RECIPE – NO EGG – NO ICECREAM MAKER.

   We all are a big fan of ice cream at home except my little one. When i attempted my first ice cream at home with MANGO it was a super hit. Few weeks later I attempted the same recipe with replacing strawberry with mango . This was again a super hit. After an year i tried ice cream at home and this time i gave a slight twist by adding evaporated milk. It was so creamy and no one can believe that it is home made.

I hurried up while taking pictures as the temperature was hot outside the ice cream started melting!!

Notes:

  • I used the nestle cream. Any type of cream can be used.
  • Sugar can be increased or decreased according to the sourness of the strawberry.
  • Do not skip the step of blending the mixture every one hour. This step will make smooth and soft ice cream .
  • As i mentioned already, if evaporated milk is not available, just replace with condensed milk. Just in that case, adjust the addition of sugar.
