This light rose flavoured creamy ice-cream is deceptively easy to make.
Ingredients
2 ½ cups milk
1 tbsp corn flour
5 tbsp sugar
1/2 cup fresh cream
8 to 10 red rose petals
2 to 3 drops rose essence
1/4 cup roasted almond slivers
Method
1. Dissolve the corn flour in 4 tablespoons of cold milk.
2. Combine the milk, corn flour solution and sugar in a pan and bring to a boil. Simmer for 3 to 4 minutes, while stirring continuously. Cool completely.
3. Add the cream, rose petals, rose essence and mix well. Pour into a shallow container. Cover and freeze till it is almost set.
4. Divide the mixture into 2 batches and churn each batch separately in a blender until it is smooth. Add the almonds and mix lightly.
5. Transfer both batches into a shallow container. Cover and freeze until it is firm. Scoop and serve.
