Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make homemade strawberry ice cream? Prepare your food. Strawberries are suitable both fresh and frozen. Remove the frozen one from the freezer 20 minutes before cooking; it’s okay if it has a little ice. Take the fattest cream, 33%, others simply won’t whip up. Be sure to cool the cream before whipping!!! The amount of condensed milk is given as average; you can put more or less of it, depending on your taste.

Step 2

Step 2
Wash the strawberries well under running cool water, remove the sepals. Place the berries on a paper towel and dry them. With frozen strawberries, skip this step.

Step 3

Step 3
Place the berries in a tall blender glass and pour powdered sugar into it. If you have other dishes than a glass, then try to choose them with high sides, otherwise you risk staining the entire kitchen with strawberries.

Step 4

Step 4
Using an immersion blender, blend the strawberries and powder until pureed. It’s okay if there are pieces of berries left, it will even be more interesting. To prepare you will need 200 ml of strawberry puree. From 300 grams I got more, I added everything and did not regret it. On the contrary, for a more intense taste, you can increase the amount of strawberries.

Step 5

Step 5
Pour the cream into a large bowl. Start beating them with a mixer, first at low speed, then at medium speed. Whip the cream until thick and the mixer blades begin to leave a clear mark on the surface.

Without stopping whisking, pour in the condensed milk. Stir it into the cream.

Step 9

Step 9
And turn the mixer back on. Stir the mixture until smooth.

Step 10

Step 10
The ice cream is ready, all that remains is to freeze it. You can use special molds and spread the creamy mixture into them. Or freeze it in a large container. I did just that, covered it with a lid and put it in the freezer overnight. Since ice cream is made from cream, it does not crystallize, so it does not need to be stirred during the freezing process.

Step 11

Step 11
In the morning the ice cream will be completely ready. Take it out of the freezer and let it sit for a short time, 10 minutes will be enough. The ice cream will soften a little and it will be convenient to apply it with a special spoon, forming balls.

Step 12

Step 12
Serve ice cream garnished with berries and mint leaves. You can additionally sprinkle it with crushed nuts and chocolate. Bon appetit!
