Pomegranate & Lime Ice Cream
Ingredients
- Pomegranate powder: 20g (freeze dried, no added sugar)
- Lime Juice: 2tsp
- Mascarpone: 230g
- Eggs: 2
- Icing Sugar: 60g
Method
- Carefully separate the egg yolks using your hands or spoons. Put aside the egg whites for another recipe.
- Whisk the egg yolks and sugar in a bowl, with an electric mixer, until thick and light in colour.
- Add the mascarpone cheese, pomegranate powder and lime juice. Gently stir in the powder to avoid it going everywhere.
- Continue whisking until thoroughly mixed.
- Decant into a freezer suitable dish and freeze for at least 6 hours.
Notes
I tend to double up this recipe to make enough for a few days.
You can use up the egg whites by making chocolate mousse.
Kit tasting notes: A perfectly enjoyable but fairly tame flavour profile. At least compared to the weirder flavours I've made. I'm glad I added as much lime as I did because it provides a necessary punchy comparison to the subtler pomegranate. I should have used fresh lime juice and zest but I think I went shopping in a bit of a rush.
