Instructions

  • Place the 3 dl of the milk together with the 2 dl of cream into a sauce pan and put on a low heat. Add the chopped thyme and the lemon zest in and bring close to the boil. Turn of the heat and leave to stand for at least 30 minutes.
  • Once the half hour is over you can whisk the egg yolks with the sugar to a creamy and thick consistency. Add your herb/cream mixture in and the orange juice and whisk until light and airy. Whisk the remaining 2 dl cream to soft peaks and fold this through the herbal mixture.
  • Prepare the ice in an ice cream machine if you have one or put into a freezer bowl. Put this in the freezer and stir every 30 minutes or so until the ice is firm.
