Equipment

  • Blender
  • Colander
  • Small Bowl
  • Electric Beater
  • Mixing Bowl
  • Spatula
  • Ice Cream Scooper

Ingredients
  

  • 3 Fresh Guavas Amrood
  • 1 Cup Of Milk
  • 1 Cup Of Condensed Milk
  • 1 Cup Of Heavy Whipping Cream
  • ½ Cup Of Water
  • ½ Cup Of Powdered Sugar
  • 1 tbsp Salt
  • 1 tbsp Black Salt
  • 1 tbsp Chilly Powder

Instructions
 

  • To make guava ice cream, prepare the guavas first. If the skin is not too soft, I prefer peeling it off. Or else, simply chop them into small pieces without removing the skin. Keep some chopped guava pieces aside for later use.
  • In a blender, add water and the chopped guava pieces. Blend it into a smooth puree.
  • Using a colander, remove the seeds and let them sit aside for some time or refrigerate the guava puree.
  • To prepare the garnish, take a small bowl and add salt, black salt & chilly powder. Mix properly and keep it aside.
  • Next, in a mixing bowl, add the heavy whipped cream and pulse it by utilizing an electric beater. Continue beating it until soft peaks are formed, and the volume has been doubled.
  • Next, add chilled milk, powdered sugar and condensed milk. Give it a quick mix.
  • Now add the prepared guava puree and some chopped guava pieces into the bowl.
  • Beat it until everything is well-combined, and when the bubbles start appearing on top, mix lightly so that the bubbles are dissolved.
  • Now keep the bowl in the freezer and let it be there for a good 3 hours. It's not necessary to cover it up.
  • After 3 hours, take it out of the freezer and with the help of a spatula, give it a nice mix! This process is done to prevent the formation of ice crystals.
  • Freeze it again for 3 hours. Once the guava ice cream is set properly, take it out and let it be out there at room temperature for about 5 to 7 minutes so that it has become slightly soft.
  • Using an ice cream scooper, scoop out the guava ice cream in the serving bowls and sprinkle the garnish prepared on top of it.
  • Guava ice cream is ready to be served!

Notes

  • Instead of using an electric beater, you can even use a whisk, but it will take a lot of time. 
  • If fresh guavas are not available at your place, then you can utilize frozen guavas or readymade guava pulp. 
  • To give your guava ice cream a nice pink colour, you can add food colour to the puree. However, I would recommend you only do this if your guavas are not that pink in colour. Plus, adding food colour is optional. 
  • If you want, you can eat this guava ice cream without the garnish. But, you must try it out once as it gives it a nice kick that cannot be beaten by any other flavour. 
  • In addition, you can use toppings like chopped almonds or toasted coconut to make it a bit crunchy.
