Ingredients
7ouncesdurian pulpseedless (about 2 pods or 1 large)
In a high power blender, add the durian pulp and condensed milk. Blend until the mixture becomes as smooth as possible.
Add the cream and blend on low speed until everything is well blended. Scrape down the sides if needed. Increase the speed to medium high to blend briefly until the ice cream base is thick and fluffy, about 10 to 15 seconds.
Transfer the durian ice cream base into a freezer safe container like a glass pyrex or a small loaf pan. Smooth out the top of the ice cream base, cover, and freeze for at least 4 hours or overnight.
When ready to enjoy, let the ice cream warm up slightly at room temperature so that it's not rock hard when scooping. Enjoy!
Notes
Please refer to the post above for step by step photo references, tips, and FAQs!
Dairy free/vegan option - You can still enjoy this ice cream by using sweetened coconut condensed milk and coconut cream instead.
Durian - This tropical fruit is super expensive if you're purchasing a fresh one. So we recommend getting the frozen durian instead. The price difference can be up to 3X! We also prefer the frozen ones because you can get the pods both with the seed or seedless. In our experience, frozen durian has always been super ripe and sweet, whereas fresh ones can sometimes be hard to pick. Just make sure to let them defrost completely and drain the liquid before use.
Condensed milk - If you prefer your ice cream less sweet, you could use a little less.
