The Good Bit

1. Heat cream in a small saucepan over medium high heat just to the point where it begins to foam up then remove from heat, meanwhile, in your mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, egg yolks and sugar until light and fluffy (about two minutes)
2. Slowly pour the heated cream into the mixture, be sure to continue whisking constantly so that the eggs do not curdle, strain out any lumps before the next step. Place the bowl over your pan of simmering water and stir constantly, cook until the mixture thickens enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon
3. Remove from the heat and stir to cool so it does not overcook, add in the vanilla extract and strawberries then cover and allow to cool to room temperature, then refrigerate several hours before freezing.
   
4. Check every so often and scrape ice from the sides of your freezer container, keep giving the mixture a good whip to help stop ice crystals forming in your ice cream

Lemon Ice Cream

Ingredients
6 Eggs (yolks only)
4 Eggs (whites only)
1 Cup Caster Sugar
1 Lemon (juiced and zested)
1/2 Cup Double Cream

Equipment
2 Mixing Bowls
1 Large Pan (1/2 full with gently simmering water)
2 Balloon Whisks
1 Metal Spoon
1 Lemon Juicer/Zester
1 Airtight Container

The Good Bit

1. Whisk together the egg yolks then stand your bowl in the pan of simmering water and keep whisking until your mixture increases in volume and then add the juice, zest and 2/3rds of the caster sugar and keep whisking until you have a pale mixture then remove from the heat.
   
2. In the other bowl whisk the egg whites until they form stiff peaks, then add in the remaining sugar gradually, and beat until the whites look shiny. Now using your metal spoon fold the egg whites and cream into the lemon mixture then pour into your container and freeze.
3. From experience it is best to check every hour or so and give a good beating with a fork, making sure to scrape any ice from around the sides of the container, this should insure you get a fairly smooth and crystal less ice cream.

1/3 Cup Fresh Orange Juice
2/3 Cup Mango (chopped into small chunks)

Equipment
1 SHARP Knife
1 Chopping Board
1 Fork

The Good Bit

1. Let the ice cream defrost a little so that it is soft enough to stir, blend your passion fruit into a pulp then mix it into the ice cream with the orange juice.
2. Finally fold in the chunks of mango with the fork then refreeze your ice cream, you have to be fairly quick doing this as you don't want to defrost the ice cream so much that it forms ice crystals when it re freezes.
