Saw this recipe on internet, liking the idea very much plus this will give me a good opportunity to test out my ice cream maker.
Final result is good, though I personally prefer to have stronger green tea flavour, so I think I will increase the quantity of matcha powder next time round (double the quantity too!). 🙂
Ingredients: (kitchen aid measure quantity)
3/4 cup milk (1.5 cups)
2 egg yolks (4 yolks)
5 Tbsp sugar (10 tbsp)
3/4 cup double cream (1.5 cups)
1 Tbsp matcha green tea powder – increase to 1.5 tbsp (3 tbsp)
3 Tbsp hot water (6 tbsp)
Method:
1. Mix hot water and green tea powder together in a bowl and set aside.
2. Lightly whisk egg yolks in a pan. Add sugar in the pan and mix well. Gradually add milk in the pan and mix well. Put the pan on low heat and
heat the mixture, stirring constantly. When the mixture is thickened, remove the pan from the heat, cool the mixture.
3. Add green tea and double cream in the cooled egg mixture and mix well.
4. Pour the mixture in an ice cream maker and freeze, following instructions of the ice cream maker. Or, pour the mixture in a container and freeze, stirring the ice cream a few times.
