Wattleseed Ice Cream

Heat in saucepan cream and milk until almost boiling, then take off heat and cool to room temperature or just above

Add wattleseed

Whisk together egg yolks and caster sugar until pale and creamy

Continue whisking and add the milk/cream/wattleseed mixture a little at a time

Put back in saucepan and return to medium heat until sauce thickens and clings to the back of a spoon. Don't all to boil as the sauce will separate.

Put in fridge to chill

Once chilled add to ice-cream maker and churn.  Use ice-cream make according to instructions.

To serve place in bowl, sprinkle with a mixture of finely milled (you can do this in a food processor) wattleseed and mix in a small amount of sugar to taste, plus top with any of your favourite fruits or nuts.

An optional extra could be cinnamon, cloves, cardamon, even a touch of coffee or chilli.  All these will further enhance the rich taste and flavour of this delicious ice cream.
