My daughter loved the strawberry ice cream but it triggered an allergic cold for her. So am a little upset with my experiment. But a dry-fruit version suited her. What this variation requires is a puree of dried figs, apricots and pistachio, almonds and cashew (instead of strawberries for the ice-cream recipe). You can soak the dry fruits overnight in room-temperature water or in warm water for half an hour. Grind them with one or two tablespoons of milk and a few grains of cardamom. (This mix can also be added to oatmeal or a glass of milk to up the nutrition quotient of breakfast-- the dried figs and apricots give the required sweetness to the oatmeal so you can avoid adding sugar.)
The rest of the ice cream recipe remains the same. Instead of adding strawberry puree add this yummy dry fruit puree to the mix.
