It wouldn't be fair to call this an ice-cream in the true sense, there is no ice cream churner or the fancy CMC and other abbreviated products used (those who have learnt ice-cream making would know). Have collected lot of coconuts and bananas from Navratri visits hence this idea:))) Anyways for several years till Gelato came along an ice cream outing for me meant only Bananas n Strawberry at Baskin Robbin's ..and how can I forget the gooey strawberry sauce that went along on top. If only we were more 'berries blessed' in Mumbai ...or atleast if somebody started stocking on the frozen kinds , life would be more 'fruitful' ..pun intended :) And then talking about Gelato , I have only been loyal to one flavour and that is Yoghurt wildberry..a great mix of the sour of the yoghurt and the sweetness of the berry (sounding more n more like a Masterchef judge..cant help it, am addicted to that program !)
Back to this recipe, try it only if you are a fan of banana flavoured stuff...I topped it with walnuts and a chocolate wafer, you can try it with anything that you fancy :)
2 ripe bananas
2 tablespoons honey
100 ml cream (I used Amul cream 25% fat)
1 tablespoon lemon juice
8-10 walnut halves, crushed slightly
1 teaspoon vanilla essence
1/2 teaspoon lemon rind ,grated
1. Blend all the ingredients in a mixer ,except the walnuts , till you get a smooth paste.
2. Fold in the walnut pieces and leave the ice cream to set in an airtight container (I used a tupperware box)
3.When the ice-cream is set (takes about 4-5 hours),scoop and serve with any topping of your choice. I added a few banana slices, chocolate wafer and a sprinkle of brown sugar.
Need to come up with more banana dessert ideas as there are still 5 more days of Navratri to go :))
