  • DIFFICULTY: EASY
  • 60 MINS

Ingredients

  • 2 cups durian flesh (about 2-3 pods)
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 cup whole milk

Method

Step 1: Preparing the Durian Mixture
In a large bowl, combine the durian flesh and sugar. Use a fork or a blender to mash the durian until it forms a smooth paste. Add the heavy cream and milk to the durian mixture, stirring well to ensure everything is evenly combined. For a smoother texture, you can use an immersion blender to blend the mixture until it is completely smooth and creamy.

Step 2: Chilling and Churning the Ice Cream
 Transfer the durian mixture to a container with a lid and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until it is thoroughly chilled. Once chilled, pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions, usually about 20-25 minutes. The ice cream should have a soft-serve consistency when it is done churning. Transfer the ice cream to a lidded container and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until it is firm enough to scoop.
