Ingredients 2 cups coconut milk (see also coconut cream as a richer alternative) 1 cup water 4 eggs 1 tsp of vanilla or rosewater (optional) pinch of salt 2 TBS of shredded coconut (see below) sprigs of mint for garnish Method. Stir fry the coconut until golden (optionally use a few pieces of fresh corn. Thais often flavor ice cream with things considered unusual to western tastes). Heat the coconut milk and water over medium heat, stirring continuously for a couple of minutes. Do not allow to boil. In a bowl beat two eggs, plus two yolks, then add the other ingredients, and whisk gently. Transfer the mixture to a double boiler over gently boiling water, and slowly blend in the hot coconut milk, stirring until the mixture thickens to form a continuous slightly sticky coat on the back of a spoon lifted from the mixture. Remove from the heat and allow to cool, then transfer to a metal ice cream tray or similar container and place in the coldest part of the freezer for one hour. Remove to a food processor and beat slowly until smooth (this incorporates some stir into the mixture and prevents it becoming too hard), then return to the freezer and complete the freezing process. Creamy Lemon Chip Ice Cream 2 cups sugar 1 cup water finely grated zest of 1 lemon 3/4 cup fresh lemon juice (4 lemons) 1/8 teaspoon salt 1 cup half-and-half 1 cup heavy or whipping cream 3 large egg yolks 1/2 cup lemon drop candies -- crushed (see note) 1. Boil the sugar and water together, stirring constantly, for 4 minutes to get a syrup. Stir in the lemon zest, lemon juice, and salt. Set aside. 2. Heat the half-and-half just below a boil in a heavy medium saucepan. Combine half-and-half, flavored syrup, cream, and egg yolks in the top of a double boiler. Cook, stirring constantly, over but not touching simmering water until the mixture is thick enough to coat a spoon, about 4 minutes. 3. Refrigerate for 4 to 12 hours, then place in the refrigerator freezer for 5 minutes. Stir in the crushed lemon drops. Freeze in an ice cream maker following the manufacturer's directions. Note: The lemon drops can be crushed by putting them in a freezer-type zip-top plastic bag and hitting them with a hammer or a meat tenderizer. They should be pounded into fairly fine pieces. Heating half-and-half above 175°F (79°C) produces a smoother-textured ice cream. Emulsifiers in egg yolks give the ice cream a smooth, creamy mouth feel. A small amount of salt enhances the flavors of the ingredients. Chilling and "aging" the mixture for 4 hours between 27° and 35°F (- 2.8° and 1.7°C) enable it to freeze at the proper rate for smooth ice cream and provide better body and texture.
