kiwifruit frozen yoghurt

Using kiwifruit as a base for your frozen yoghurt and adding lemon juice to the mixture gives it a lovely tangy taste.

You can either use an ice cream maker or do it the traditional way, that is, freeze the mixture for one hour, remove it from the freezer, whisk it again and place it back in the freezer. Either way, this is a wonderful dessert to eat on a hot day.

Our friend, YC told us that eating ice cream / frozen yoghurt on a cold day is absolutely divine. We were skeptical when we first heard it but when we ate ice cream at her home in Perth, Australia on a very cold night, we were hooked. Yummy, yummy, yummy!

INGREDIENTS

200g kiwifruit
100ml plain yoghurt
100ml whipping cream
100g icing sugar
1 tbsp lemon juice

METHOD

1. Peel the kiwifruit and cube them.

2. Blend the kiwifruit in a blender together with the plain yoghurt, lemon juice and icing sugar.

3. Whip the whipping cream in a bowl until stiff.

4. Add the contents of the blender to the whipping cream and mix well.

5. Place the mixture in the freezer for 1 hour, then remove it, whisk it again to break up ice crystals and put it back in the freezer for at least 8 hours or overnight. Alternatively, place the mixture in the ice cream maker and mix for 30 minutes before pouring the mixture into a container and freezing the mixture for at least 8 hours or overnight.
