Durian Ice Cream

The durian season comes again and what a better way than to celebrate with whipping a delicious, creamy durian ice cream that melts in your mouth within seconds. As a child, I remember waiting for this sweet dessert every time the durian season arrived. My mom would make very sweet durian ice cream that could be finished in a blink. A few days ago, I celebrated the childhood memories and let my children sample the rich flavour that I used to enjoy and still enjoy. Do try!

Ingredient A
2 cans cream milk (to be kept frozen in the fridge)

Ingredients B
3-4 durian flesh (depending on the size and how strong you want the durian taste to be)
sugar, as preferred (depending on how sweet you want your ice cream to be)
300 ml coconut milk
2 pandan (screwpine) leaves

Methods
1. In a pot, put the durian flesh, sugar, pandan leaves and coconut milk. Cook until the mixture thickens a little bit. Let it cool and then freeze it in the freezer.

2. When the mixture (ingredients B) is half frozen, whip the mixture until creamy. In a separate bowl, whip the frozen cream milk (ingredient A) before combining both ingredients A and B.

3. Let the mixture (ingredients A and B combined) cool until half frozen and then whip the whole mixture again. You have to repeat doing the same process (half frozen and whipping) until the ice cream becomes tender.

4. Once you have achieved your desired consistency you can serve it to all.
