Ingredients
| Egg yolks | 4 | |
| 115 g / 4 oz / 1/2 cup caster sugar | ||
| 300 ml / 1/2 pint / 1 1/4 cups milk | ||
| 500 ml / 1/2 pint / 1 1/4 cups double cream | ||
| 15 ml / 1 tbsp rose water | ||
| Chopped | 175 Gram, chopped | |
Directions
1. Beat the egg yolks and sugar until light. In a pan, bring the milk to the boil. Add to the egg and sugar, stirring, then return to the pan.
2. Continue stirring over a low heat until the mixture coats the back of a spoon. Do not boil, or it will curdle. Leave to cool, then stir in the cream and rose water.
3. Put the Turkish delight in a pan with 30-45 ml / 2-3 tbsp water. Heat gently, until almost completely melted, with just a few small lumps. Remove from the heat and stir into the cool custard mixture.
4. Leave the mixture to cool completely, then pour into a shallow freezer container. Freeze for 3 hours until just frozen all over. Spoon the mixture into a bowl.
5. Using a whisk, beat the mixture well, and return to the freezer container and freeze for 2 hours more. Repeat the beating process, then return to the freezer for about 3 hours, or until firm. Remove the ice cream from the freezer 20-25 minutes before serving. Serve with thin almond biscuits or meringues.
