How To Make Trini Coconut Ice Cream | Foodie Nation

Get your ice cream maker ready because this weekend we’re making Coconut Ice Cream:

Yield: 6 Cups

INGREDIENTS

1 Dried Coconut (About 1 Cup)
2½ Cups Evaporated Milk
3 Cups Heavy Cream
1¼ Cup Condensed Milk or 9 Oz Sugar
1 Tsp Vanilla Essence
3 Tbsp Chief Brand Custard Powder

METHOD

1. Remove flesh from dried coconut and grate to yield about 1 cup.
2. Place grated coconut into a blender and add the evaporated milk. Blend for 30 to 45 seconds until the coconut has been grounded finely and melds with the milk. Strain this coconut milk through a fine sieve ensuring to squeeze the grated pulp properly with your hands to yield the true coconut flavor into the milk.
3. Set grated coconut aside.
4. Pour this coconut milk into a medium sauce pan together with the heavy cream, condensed milk, almond essence and custard powder.
5. Place on medium heat, whisk to incorporate all ingredients into the milk evenly and bring mixture up to a simmer where light bubbles break the surface of the milk. Be careful to watch the milk as it may boil over. This should cook for about 8 minutes and as you whisk the milk mixture, it should begin to thicken due to the custard powder.
6. Remove milk custard form the heat and pour into a clean bowl. Allow to chill in the refrigerator for a minimum of 4 hours or better overnight.
7. Set up your ice cream maker or old fashioned churner and pour the coconut custard into the pale and allow to churn for 1 – 1 ¼ hour.
8. After churning, the ice cream will be semi-firm, similar to the texture of a slushy or smoothie. Empty the ice cream from the pale into a plastic container and cover tightly. Place in a freezer overnight to allow the ice-cream, to fully firm up and achieve its proper texture.
9. You can take a little of the grated coconut remaining and toast it lightly in the oven or in a hot pan on medium heat to crisp up and brown.
10. Remove ice cream from freezer, scoop and serve in a bowl or in a cone. Sprinkle some of the toasted coconut atop for a great garnish and crunch factor.

Take the squeezed out coconut and spread it on a sheetpan to dry. When it's dry blend in a nutrimix or nutribullet with the milling blade to make coconut flour 👌

[jasonshurland]

The coconut on the finish ice cream cant be the same one you blend its shredded coconut you did and toasted . Also i would suggest a coconut extract which will boat the flavor . The custard powder should be mixed with a little water before add to to the hot milk mixture to avoid some lumps

[lorrainecray]

Easier to blend the custard powder if you add sum of your icecream mix to it, mix it together then add to your pot.❤ this is a wonderful recipe can’t wait to make it, thank you so much ❤❤

Hey there Jason and Kezzianne. Thank you for all the recipe's you show us and the enthusiasm and energy you both bring to cooking. Also it's great to see you both showing Trinbagonian cooking and flavours to the world 🙂

Nice presentation, I like it but a slight misinformation for correction, Custard powder is made up of a combination of milk, sugar, and egg yolk. So we're back to the egg yolk!

[jackie]

Instead of custard powder, can you use cornstarch, rice starch or cassava starch.

I'm not a person that likes being in the kitchen a lot but they get me excited to try new things in the kitchen.

[kathishaantoinethomas]

Yes! I am Trini lives in states now. I have the Birds brand custard too as some one from England commented. I am going to try this. Years ago my aunt would make a gaint pot of custard, and she also add the eggs at the end. You thought me something by saying you do not need to add the eggs if you use custard powder. Thanks!

[candicedougan]

[kiayearwood]

You guys just encourage me to purchase a ice-cream machine. The recipes you share never disappoint me yet, I just love your channel. Can you make one with egg I would like to see how to add the egg since that everything would be cooked in together.
