THAI VEGAN COCONUT ICE CREAM



Thai Vegan Coconut Ice Cream image

This vegan coconut ice cream was inspired by my many trips to Thailand and is absolutely divine! One really important thing about making coconut ice cream - the base must be really well chilled before churning in the ice cream maker or the ice cream will be too soft and slushy. Try and chill it for a minimum of three or fours hours. Overnight is actually preferable for the best results. Even then, I find that the ice cream never gets to a consistency beyond that of frozen yoghurt in the machine. I like to transfer the ice cream into the freezer for a few hours to solidify it a bit more before serving. I like to add natural coconut flavoring in order to accent the coconut flavor. But it is also wonderful with vanilla extract. It is all a matter of personal preference. You could also add in more shredded coconut if you prefer a crunchier texture. You can also add in cacao powder or fruit to the mix too. But I like it just like this!

This was found at WOKME. Please ponder with me why fresh corn kernels are used in this recipe...? The instructions here don't require an ice cream maker. I edited to correct the broken English. Cooking time is freezer time.

Time 2h15m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups coconut milk
2 cups water
4 whole eggs
4 egg yolks
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 pinch salt
4 tablespoons shredded coconut
4 tablespoons fresh corn kernels
4 mint leaves, for garnishing
1/2 teaspoon vegetable oil

Steps:

  • In a pan with a little oil stir fry the shredded coconut and corn kernels.
  • Once golden brown drain off any excess oil and add the coconut milk, heat for a couple of minutes, do NOT bring to boil.
  • In another bowl beat 4 eggs and an additional 4 yolks, and then the other ingredients, whisking gently until mixed.
  • Transfer the milk mixture to a double boiler then slowly mix in the egg mixture.
  • The mixture will thicken and become sticky. Once sticky remove from the heat and transfer to a ice cream tray and put in the freezer for an hour.
  • Once lightly frozen, break up and beat in a food processor, this adds some air to the mixture and makes it light and fluffy.
  • Return to the freezer and once frozen is ready to eat. This ice cream is delicious with fresh fruit like berries papaw or pineapple.

Tips:

  • Use full-fat coconut milk. This will give your ice cream a rich, creamy texture.
  • Chill your coconut milk and cream before churning. This will help the ice cream freeze more quickly and smoothly.
  • Don't over-churn the ice cream. Over-churning can make the ice cream grainy.
  • Add your favorite mix-ins after the ice cream has churned. This will prevent them from freezing solid.
  • Store the ice cream in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.

Conclusion:

Thai coconut ice cream is a delicious and refreshing treat that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking.
