The reason why I am re-posting this because that's my second entry to the lovely event Cold Desserts hosted by Akheela of Torviewtoronto.
From time to time, I buy a melon………Honeydew. Delicious, cool, pale green honeydew. When I get home from the grocery store, I halve, quarter, slice, peel, and cube the melon and then put it in a Tupperware in the fridge so that I can pluck out chilly cubes for the next few days whenever I fancy a bite of something sweet.
This particular week honeydew sat in the fridge a little too long and lost its bite. Instead of tossing it, I thought I'd use the mushy melon to make some frozen dessert. I don't have an ice cream maker, and the whole process of making ice creams and sorbets has long intimidated me. But quick, before I could psych myself out of it, I dumped the melon and its juices, some powder sugar, and a bit of lime juice into the blender. The result was a divine honeydew smoothie; blended it with Milkmaid and cream. I made ice cream! And not just ice cream, but genuine snooty, unusually flavored, trendy ice cream.
for this you will need:-
1 full very ripe honeydew melon, cut into chunks
1/2 cup powder sugar
1 Tbsp. Lime Juice
100 ml. of Milkmaid (if you are not using milkmaid then increase the quantity of Sugar and Milk/Cream)
300 ml of Fresh Cream
½ cup Boiled and cooled Milk
that make about 1 liter of Ice-cream….
1. Now Pour in ½ cup Sugar, lime juice and put in the melon chunks into the blender
and churn them into a smoothie.
2. Pour it in a bowl and mix it with the cream, milk and milkmaid. Blend the whole thing again in batches (according to the size of the blender) again.
3. Pour into a Tupperware and freeze.
4. After say 3-4 hours; take out the whole thing and churn it again and Re-freeze it. Follow this process atleast 2 times. I found that the texture of the ice cream was improved by two re-blendings.
5. Freeze it again after 2 blending for 4-5 hours and you Ice-cream will be ready.
Note:- You can use this recipe to make this Ice-cream with our regular water melon (Kalingad) and Cantaloupe (Kharbuja). Try it out once......
