Its just mid april but DELHI is already hot and hot wind called loo has already started in the noon time,only thing which is pleasent here is morning and evening,so morning first thing i do when i wake up is to open the balcony door to feel the cool breeze,just like winters i will be facing summer after some 9 yrs,winters were fine last yr though i was scared as it was first winter for Advay just like this being his first summer,...but now i feel i have to take more care of him in this weather,...when travelling with Advay i have to take special care that sun rays dont fall on him directly or he gets irritated and starts crying,he is not used to of the scrotching heat,...:-(
Now lunch is replaced by lassi,ice creahe and other coolers,...i just dont feel like eating anything in the noon time,..i guess its the weather effect,:-),
coming to todays post i will be sharing recipe of Cashew and Orange Icecream and Blueberry cheesecake,..perfect for the weather right,..
while going through my icecream book i saw the recipe of Cashew Icecream as i had all the ingredient in my pantry i thought of giving it a try,..
serves 4 to 6
ingredient needed
4 egg yolks
6 tbsp sugar
1 tsp cornflour
300ml semi skimmed milk
300ml whipping cream
150 gm cashewnut chopped
15ml orange juice (i have used minute maid)
grated rind of orange
procedure
step 1
whisk together eggyolk,sugar and cornflour in a bowl till it is foamy
in a pan gently boil the milk and gradually whisk into egg mixture
return to the pan and cook over a gentle heat ,stirring constantly until smooth
pour back into the bowl ,cool and chill
step 2
heat the cream in saucepan ,when it boils stir in the chopped cashewnuts,leave to cool
process the nut cream in a food processor until it forms a fine paste.
step 3
stir in orange juice and grated orange rind into the chilled custard followed by addition of creamy cashew mix
step 4
pour the mixture into freezeproof container and freeze upto 6 hrs beating twice with a fork to break up the ice crystals.
Before serving decorate each portion with orange rind curl,i didnt do this because as soon as i took ice cream out of the freezer i started to digin ,...:-)
