Hi

I'm from beautiful Perth Western Australia so I'd probably have a bit
of trouble getting the books you mention - I'll have a look on Amazon.

The previous poster talked about making the custard thick enough -
perhaps I'll make a richer custard last time.

I'm very conscious of keeping everything cold (I keep the chiller bowl
in the freezer all the time and I chill everything for at least 2 hours
before using).

I've had good results with this recipe:

1 cup milk (I have used both full cream and hi-lo milk)
1 cup cream
1 x 60g egg
1 cup mashed bananas (you might want to add a bit of sqeezed lemon to
stop them discolouring) / whizzed up mango / fruit of your choice
1/2 cup caster sugar (although I have used normal sugar with good
results. I usually put in just less that 1/2 a cup)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla.

Process all ingredients in a food processor or blender on low speed
until the mixture is smooth and the sugar dissolves.

Place mixture into a pouring jug or a bowl, cover and refrigerate for
1-2 hours / freeze for 20-30 minutes or until completely chilled
(better to refrigerate so you don't end up with icy mix).

Stir mixture before pouring into rotating Freezer Bowl. Process until
desired consistency is achieved (30 - 40 minutes).

FYI I have a Breville Scoop Factory.

Cheers

Jane
