29 July 2012 (Sun) - Strawberry & Blueberry Ice Cream, Strawberry & Blueberry Smoothie and Oreo Milkshake

Wanted to make mango and passion fruit ice cream but was unable to get either of the fruit. Saw an offer on strawberries and blueberries so bought a punnet of stawberries at S$4.50 and two punnets of blueberries at S$4.95. Didn't follow any recipe in specific and the result was a crumply texture ice cream with strong taste of strawberries and blueberries. Either because I added too much strawberries and blueberries or because I added some honey.

A close-up

Ingredients:
1.5 cup strawberries and blueberries
200ml whipping cream
1 tbsp strawberry honey
35g castor sugar

Method:
1.  Cut strawberries into small pieces
2.  Put all ingredients into blender and blend till smooth
3.  Pour into a container of your choice and put into the freezer
4.  Take out the mixture from the freezer after 2 hours and churn using a spoon
5.  Repeat step 4 for 2-3 times and leave the mixture to freeze overnight

Took some leftover strawberries and blueberries to make smoothie and it was yummy! Then I went on to make oreo milkshake which turned out to be more like smoothie. I guess it was either because I left the vanilla ice cream out for a bit too long or I had over blended the mixture or I should not have added milk at all.

Overall, I had a very berry good weekend with lots of brain food.
