How To Make Guava Ice Cream?
Guava Ice Cream Recipe
Equipment
- Blender
- Colander
- Small Bowl
- Electric Beater
- Mixing Bowl
- Spatula
- Ice Cream Scooper
Ingredients
- 3 Fresh Guavas Amrood
- 1 Cup Of Milk
- 1 Cup Of Condensed Milk
- 1 Cup Of Heavy Whipping Cream
- ½ Cup Of Water
- ½ Cup Of Powdered Sugar
- 1 tbsp Salt
- 1 tbsp Black Salt
- 1 tbsp Chilly Powder
Instructions
- To make guava ice cream, prepare the guavas first. If the skin is not too soft, I prefer peeling it off. Or else, simply chop them into small pieces without removing the skin. Keep some chopped guava pieces aside for later use.
- In a blender, add water and the chopped guava pieces. Blend it into a smooth puree.
- Using a colander, remove the seeds and let them sit aside for some time or refrigerate the guava puree.
- To prepare the garnish, take a small bowl and add salt, black salt & chilly powder. Mix properly and keep it aside.
- Next, in a mixing bowl, add the heavy whipped cream and pulse it by utilizing an electric beater. Continue beating it until soft peaks are formed, and the volume has been doubled.
- Next, add chilled milk, powdered sugar and condensed milk. Give it a quick mix.
- Now add the prepared guava puree and some chopped guava pieces into the bowl.
- Beat it until everything is well-combined, and when the bubbles start appearing on top, mix lightly so that the bubbles are dissolved.
- Now keep the bowl in the freezer and let it be there for a good 3 hours. It’s not necessary to cover it up.
- After 3 hours, take it out of the freezer and with the help of a spatula, give it a nice mix! This process is done to prevent the formation of ice crystals.
- Freeze it again for 3 hours. Once the guava ice cream is set properly, take it out and let it be out there at room temperature for about 5 to 7 minutes so that it has become slightly soft.
- Using an ice cream scooper, scoop out the guava ice cream in the serving bowls and sprinkle the garnish prepared on top of it.
- Guava ice cream is ready to be served!
Notes
- Instead of using an electric beater, you can even use a whisk, but it will take a lot of time.
- If fresh guavas are not available at your place, then you can utilize frozen guavas or readymade guava pulp.
- To give your guava ice cream a nice pink colour, you can add food colour to the puree. However, I would recommend you only do this if your guavas are not that pink in colour. Plus, adding food colour is optional.
- If you want, you can eat this guava ice cream without the garnish. But, you must try it out once as it gives it a nice kick that cannot be beaten by any other flavour.
- In addition, you can use toppings like chopped almonds or toasted coconut to make it a bit crunchy.
Shelf Life
It is best to consume guava ice cream immediately after it is served. However, it can be stored for up to 3 to 4 weeks in an ice cream container with a lid.
