Ingredients:
Raspberry Ripple Jam400g fresh or frozen raspberries
80g granulated sugar
45ml water (not needed if using frozen raspberries)
For the Vanilla Ice Cream
500ml double cream
250ml whole milk
75g granulated sugar
3 free-range egg yolks
pinch of salt
2 Vanilla pods (split lengthwise and seeds scraped out, use the pod and seeds)
1 packet of McVitie’s Digestive Biscuits
method:
- To make the raspberry ripple jam, place the fruit, sugar (and water) into a large pan and bring the mixture to the boil, stirring regularly. Reduce the heat until the mixture is simmering, then continue to simmer for 8-10 minutes, or until the fruit has broken down.
- Strain the fruit mixture through a sieve into a clean pan, squeezing any additional juice out of the fruit by pressing it down with the back of a wooden spoon. Return the strained fruit juice to the heat and bring to a simmer. Continue to simmer until the mixture resembles a thick syrup. Set aside until completely cooled.
- Now make the ice cream. Pour the cream, milk and sugar into a saucepan. Bring slowly to a boil then remove from the heat and allow to cool. In a bowl, whisk together the salt and egg yolk until well combined. Slowly pour the slightly cooled milk and cream into the egg mixture, stirring constantly.
