- Bring the cream and lowfat milk to the boil in a saucepan. Beat the egg yolks with the sugar. Pour some of the heated cream and lowfat milk onto the Large eggs and whisk.
- Pour mix back into the remaining heated cream. Cook over a low heat, stirring constantly, till the custard coats the back of a spoon. Strain into a bowl and leave to cold. Add in the chestnut puree and beat it well into the custard. Flavour to taste with vanilla or possibly a little rum. Refrigeratein the refrigerator for 1-2 hrs. Freeze in an ice-cream maker (or possibly use th old method of beating it every half hour several times). Serve garnished with minced marron glace.
- Serves 8.
- My note: Chestnuts go well with chocolate; serve this with chocolate sauce and some chocolate curls to decorate too; superb for a special occasion.
- Also go easy on the rum, freezing intensifies the flavours and alcohol is an anti-freeze, a little goes a long way, 2 Tbsp. should be more than sufficient.
