Answer 1

Home made ice-cream (without using a machine)

INGREDIENTS: 1 large pot of double cream, 1 egg beaten, 1 egg yolk, 4oz sugar, dash of milk, 1 teaspoon vanilla essence (optional, you can also use tinned fruit of your choice, just puree it first).

METHOD: Light the ring on the hob. Put all the ingredients in a saucepan and put on hob. Heat until boiling, stirring continuously. Put mixture in a freezer safe container and cover. Place in freezer for 2 hours. After 2 hours remove from the freezer and stir well. Put in the freezer for a further 2 hours and then stir again. Put back in the freezer until solid. Eat!

This ice-cream contains nothing artificial, so only lasts for about a month. However, it is to die for!
