~200g Mixed dried fruit (orange peel, lemon peel, raisins, sultanas, preserved ginger, those weird glace cherries etc etc )
1.5 tsps mixed spice
6tbsp sherry
75g almonds
4 eggs
80g brown sugar
40g ordinary white sugar
400ml milk
300ml cream
You gotta plan ahead a bit for this one - soak the dried fruit in the sherry, mixed with about half the spice. Leave for a couple of days so it gets nice and boozey.
Make the custard, then mix in the cream and the rest of the spices. Put it in the machine, and add the fruit and nuts when it starts to thicken. I drained off the rest of the sherry before adding the fruit in, as too much booze can change the freezing point of the mix...
Remarks: Great! Fills you full of yuletide cheer! A possible alternative would be to substitute some of the sugar for melted chocolate....next year friends, next year...
