Gooseberry Ice Cream
- 1 lb gooseberry
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 1 1/2 cups milk
- 3 egg yolks
- 1 cup cream
- 1/4 cup glucose powder
- Place 1lb of gooseberries, 1/2 cup of water and 1 cup of sugar (or to taste) in a saucepan and simmer for approximately ten minutes.
- In a separate saucepan, make the custard by heating 1 1/2 cups of milk and 1/4 cup of sugar.
- Bring to boiling point and remove from the heat.
- In a heatproof bowl, whip up 3 egg yolks with a further 1/4 cup of sugar. Pour the hot milk into the egg mixture and then put back into the saucepan on the stove and stir over a gentle heat until the custard coats the back of a spoon. Do not allow to boil.
- Cool both the fruit and custard down and liquidize and/or sieve the fruit mixture to make a puree.
- Set aside 1/3 of the fruit puree for use later.
- Mix the remaining 2/3 of the fruit puree with the 1/4 cup of glucose powder.
- Mix this with 1 cup of whipping or double cream and add in the custard mixture.
- Pour into the ice cream maker and follow the manufacturers instructions to freeze the ice cream.
- When ready, mix in the remaining 1/3 of the fruit puree very roughly, leaving a marbled effect.
- Place directly into the freezer and freeze for at least one hour before serving.
