FREEZING ICE CREAM WITHOUT AN ICE CREAM MACHINE

This is the method for making ice cream without an ice cream machine.
Put the chilled mixture into a strong plastic container about 2in deep. Cover with a lid and put in the coldest part of the freezer. Check after 1-1.5 hours.
the mixture should have frozen to a firm ring of ice around the sidesand the base of the box, with a soft slush in the centre.
Remove from the freezer and beat for a few seconds with an electric hand-whisk or fork until the mixture forms a uniform slush.
Quickly return to the freezer.
Repeat the beating process at least twice at 1-1.5 hour intervals.
After the final beating, transfer the ice cream to a deeper container for storage
freeze for a further 30 minutes.
