Vanilla and cardamon ice cream

1

Depending on the ice machine you need to freeze the mixing bowl in advance ( between 10 - 24 hours )

Place the cream, milk and cardamon in the sauce pan, halve a vanilla stick lengthwise and scrape the inside into the cream. Place on medium heat and slowly bring to a boil.

2

Mean while separate the egg yolk into a bowl, beat the sugar through loosely. When the cream reaches boiling point turn the heat down and add about 1/4 of the cream to the egg yolk while mixing thoroughly. Then add the yolk mixture back into the pan.

3

Place the pan back on a low heat and keep stirring well; careful, not to boil the sauce. After 2 - 4 minutes when the cream starts to thicken, remove the sauce pan from the heat and chill in the freezer until completely cooled down.
