Time 5h10m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 cups light cream
1 ½ cups fat free sweetened condensed milk
3 stalks chopped lemon grass
2 egg yolks

Steps:

  • Heat cream, condensed milk, lemon grass in a saucepan over medium heat until mixture steams. Remove from heat before the mixture boils and allow to steep for at least 30 minutes, up to 1 hour and 30 minutes.
  • Reheat the cream mixture over medium heat until it begins to steam. Whisk egg yolks in a small bowl. Temper the egg yolks by pouring a small amount of the hot mixture in while whisking constantly to avoid scrambling the eggs. Pour the warm egg mixture into the cream mixture. Continue to cook and stir until the mixture is able to coat the back of a spoon. Strain mixture through a sieve to remove the bits of lemon grass. Refrigerate until cold.
  • Pour the chilled mixture into an ice cream maker and freeze according to manufacturer's directions until it reaches "soft-serve" consistency. Transfer ice cream to a one- or two-quart lidded plastic container; cover surface with plastic wrap and seal. For best results, ice cream should ripen in the freezer for at least 2 hours or overnight.

Overall, I thought this was a good recipe. I'll definitely make it again, but I'll make a few changes to suit my own taste.

This ice cream was a bit too sweet for my liking. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

The flavor of this ice cream is a bit too strong for my taste. I think I'll try using less lemon grass next time.

I followed the recipe and the ice cream turned out a little too icy. I think I might have over-churned it.
