Frozen Strawberry Treat

Being an avid strawberry fan, it’s usual to see my fridge stacked with them during the off season. So when the heat peaked up recently over here, I ended up making this next dish with these stacked up strawberries. What came out can’t be termed as either a frozen yogurt or ice cream, so I am just going to call it a treat!!! And this treat is sure to bring down the temperatures for both adults & kids alike!!!

Ingredients

• 1 cup Strawberry fresh or frozen
• ¾ cup sugar
• 2 tbsp. lime juice
• ¾ cup water
• ½ cup whole milk
• 1 cup low fat yogurt plus tbsp. fresh cream (I used Amul fresh cream)   

In a deep bottom pan, place the strawberries, water, sugar and lime juice. Bring to boil till the strawberries look mushy mushy for about 5-8 minutes on a medium flame. Mash the strawberries while cooking with a masher or with the back of the spoon. Check for sugar.

Remove from heat and add yogurt, cream and milk and mix completely. I had added 1 tsp. raspberry essence to get the colour. It’s optional.

Transfer the mixture to a freezer proof container. Chill for 3-4 hours or until set. Yummmy…..!!!!
