250gramsripe strawberries
100gramscaster sugar
300gramsCreme Fraiche
1meringue crushed into chunks, not powder
25gramswhite chocolate
Instructions
To make the strawberry puree, hull the strawberries and crush them with the sugar, either in a food processor or with a fork, it will take you a bit longer but you do get some nice chunky bits of strawberry.
Mix the strawberry puree with the creme fraiche, cut the chocolate into chunks and mix it into the strawberry mixture. Put in an ice cream maker to churn or put the bowl into the freezer until the ice cream is firm. I would recommend using a shallow flat dish as it will freeze quicker.
Take the ice cream out of the freezer every 30-45 minutes and break up the ice crystals by whisking with a fork. The third time you do this, the ice cream should be firm enough to mix in the crushed meringue, then leave it to freeze until firm.
To serve, take the ice cream out of the freezer and place in the fridge for about 20 minutes until it is soft enough to scoop.
