Number Of Ingredients 5

2 tsp grated lemon zest * (very fine)
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (strained)
1 cup caster sugar (or superfine)
600 ml whipping cream
3 drops yellow food colouring * (optional)

Steps:

  • Add the lemon zest, juice and caster/superfine sugar to a food processor and whiz them together.
  • With the motor running, gradually add, through the feed tube, the cream and the food colouring if using.
  • Process just until the mixture thickens to a texture similar to whipped cream. Spoon the ice cream into an airtight freezer container or spoon into a decorative mould and cover with two layers of cling wrap.
  • Freeze for approximately 4 hours. The length of time will vary, depending on the temperature of your freezer and the size of the container.
  • If you have used a decorative mould, carefully dip the mould into a bowl of hot water for a few seconds. Dry the mould with a tea towel, place a serving plate on top and carefully upturn the mould.
  • Remove from the fridge about 15 minutes before serving to allow the ice cream to soften a little.
