Ingredients
- 1 cup whole milk

- 8 tablespoon raw sugar (or white sugar (adjust depending on the sweetness of the strawberries))
Method
- Rinse strawberries a few times in water using a colander or strainer. Drain all the water and transfer strawberries onto a tray or plate.
- Pat dry the rinsed strawberries thoroughly. The strawberries should be dry before you chop them.
- Roughly chop the strawberries and set aside.
- In a blender add cold milk, chilled cream, sugar and chopped strawberries.
- Blend to a smooth and fine consistency. Make sure there are no chunks of strawberries in the mixture.
- Pour this mixture into a ice cream box or container.
- Cover tightly and keep in the freezer for 4 to 5 hours or more for the ice cream to set.
- When the ice cream is almost set, remove and let it sit at room temperature for some minutes till you can slice it with a knife easily or scoop it with an ice cream scooper.
- Add the ice cream pieces or scoops in a blender again and whip till the mixture is smooth, creamy and slightly doubled up in volume.
- Pour back in the same container or box. Cover tightly and keep in the freezer to set.
- When completely set, scoop and serve Strawberry Ice Cream as it is or with fresh strawberry pieces or topped with your favorite garnishes.
