No Churn No egg Mango icecream

Ever wondered how to make icecream at home when you dont have ice cream churner or not even a electric hand blender. Well, i have made mango icecream without an ice cream machine and without eggs. Of course i did not even have an electric blender with me. I tried to make it with a regular mixie (Preethi mixie) and it turned out to be a perfect ice cream, with no preservatives unlike the store bought ones.



Ingredients:

1 ripe mango
1 cup condensed milk
1 cup heavy whipping cream
15-18 almonds


Steps:

1. Wash and peel the mango skin. Cut the mango into small chunks. Add it to the mixie. Blend it smoothly.


2. Add condensed milk to the mixie. Blend it smooth for a minute.


3. Now, add heavy whipping cream. Blend it for 2-3 minutes until it becomes creamy.

 

4. Transfer the contents to a plastic container or a pan, you can cover it with a cling wrap and then a foil. The simplest method is to use an old ice cream box. Here I have used ice cream container.

Tip: If you are using a regular pan or a plastic box make sure you cover the pan/box with a plastic cling wrap. Then with a silver foil in order to prevent the ice cream from crystallisation (ice droplets being formed).


5. In the same mixie, add almonds. Grind it coarsely.  Add the almonds powder to the ice cream container. Fold it gently.



6. Fold the chopped almonds gently into the ice cream mixture. I have used a fork to mix the contents.



7. Close the lid of the ice cream container and freeze it overnight.

8. Next morning, or after 10 hours you can see the ice cream is being set, without crystallisation.


9. Keep it at room temperature for 10 minutes. It will be easy to scoop out the ice cream.
Alternatively, you can microwave the ice cream container for 30 seconds, if you cannot wait for 10 minutes :)



10. I have used a store bought waffle cone and gonna scoop out the tasty mango ice cream into it.
Look at the texture of the ice cream, it's as good as the store bought ones but healthier than that.



 11. I'm gonna enjoy this ice cream cone. What you waiting for !??!! Go and grab the ingredients and start making your own ice cream in this cool way.

Palkova / Thirattupaal/ Sweet Khoya

Homemade sweets are always special as you have control over the sweetness ( well, i agree you cannot compromise on the sugar added to a sweet recipe) however we can assure brown sugar or jaggery could be substituted wherever possible and free of food colors and any other preservatives. In today's recipe, i'm going to share about a simple two-ingredient recipe which uses cow's milk - its palkova aka thirattupaal (sweet khoya). The process is quite cumbersome, however with a heavy bottomed non-stick pan, you can skip stirring quite often and sit back and watch while it gets simmered without being burnt. Choose the right vessel for this dish and you would be rest assured a hassle free recipe. Let's get into recipe and the steps. You can use full cream milk or buffalo's milk instead of cow's milk. Cow's milk gives the best of taste you can ever get! Happy ready and hope you try out this recipe at your home and share your valuable feedback. Ingredients...

Chocolate dipped strawberries

I once tried to make chocolate flavoured cake. You know what i mean ? Well it's not a chocolate cake, but i wanted to add little bit of melted chocolate to the batter and I used a microwave safe bowl to melt the chocolate. Uff! the chocolate did not melt evenly instead, the bowl started to burn. Never in my world, i know that the microwave needs to be set in the lowest power mode and the chocolate needs to be melted by keeping it in the microwave and check every 30 seconds. Over the period of daily cooking and learning, i thought double boiler method would be the best way to melt chocolates and of course without burning anything! Double boiler method helps not to burn the vessel in which we melt the chocolate. It is basically a sauce pan filled with one fourth of water and boil it. Once the water starts boiling, place the chocolate containing vessel inside the sauce pan (make sure, the vessel does not slide and get water into it, that is why we choose to fill one fourth of the sa...

For more health benefits, you can start include ragi in any form into your daily recipes like breakfast drink made with ragi sprouted flour, ragi dosai, ragi adai, ragi semiya - sweet & savory, ragi koozh (a staple food in TamilNadu).
