METHODS

1. Place the strawberries in a small pan with the crushed pink peppercorns and 100g of the condensed milk.
2. Cook over a moderate heat for
7–10 minutes, or until the strawberries
have softened. Allow to cool.
3. Purée the mixture in a food processor with the Turkish delight.
4. Place the mixture in a mixing bowl and fold in the remaining condensed milk, custard and whipped cream.
5. Transfer the mixture to a freezer container, cover and freeze for 2 hours.
For a silkier texture, remove the mixture from the freezer halfway, and using a fork, break up all the ice crystals and return it to the freezer until frozen.
6. Move the ice cream to the fridge for 10–15 minutes before serving.
7. Serve by itself or in cones, with blocks
of Turkish Delight and strawberries.
