Method

Ingredients

To make the vanilla ice-cream base: 

1. Beat the egg yolks, sugar and vanilla extract using an electric mixer until pale. This aerates the eggs and makes for a lighter, fluffier ice cream.

2. Combine the egg-yolk mixture with the cream and milk, then pour into a saucepan. Cook over a low to medium heat until thickened. Alternatively, cook in a doubleboiler.

3. Allow the mixture to cool, then churn in an ice-cream machine until ready to serve. Makes 2 litres

To make the Caramelised banana-and-crunchie ice cream:

1. Make the ice-cream base.

2. Caramelise the bananas in a pan in the golden syrup over a high heat for 4 minutes. Mash the bananas using a fork and allow to cool.

3. Fold the cooled bananas and Crunchies
