While in Italy I fall in love with strawberry ice-cream, otherwise called gelato alla fragola. You might think this is very basic, but actually it taste really refreshing as it taste of real strawberry! Sadly, I often find the shop bought strawberry ice-cream taste like candy powder.

This strawberry ice-cream might not be traditional Italian, but it is really easy to make as it requires little effort. Unlike other ice-cream I made it doesn’t contain any egg and there is no need to keep mixing it while freezing!


FRESH STRAWBERRY ICE-CREAM

  • 500ml whipping cream
  • 1 can condensed milk (397g)
  • 400g-700g fresh strawberries

1. Whip the cream and carefully combine it with condensed milk and pureed strawberries (can also be finely shopped).

2. Once the ice-cream mixture is combined pour it into plastic container and freeze it for at least 4 hours.

3. Serve ice-cream in your favourite cups or glass jars ;-).

Three servings of strawberry ice-cream in glass cups garnished with fresh strawberries, placed on a wooden cutting board alongside an ice cream scooper and a bottle of balsamic vinegar.

I have recently discovered that aged balsamic vinegar goes really well with ice-cream. I dare you to try it!
