I have posted a few ice cream recipes already.

rose and pistachio ice cream recipe
I just can’t get enough :-0
Now that dairy or refined sugar are not my favourite things to consume I tend to make my own these days.
This time I am using one of my favourite ingredients. Tahini! Tahini is sesame paste that add ice-cream even creamier texture. You can certainly use light colour tahini but I used black tahini.
I wanted to make this ice-cream sugar free. Luo han guo is also called monk fruit. It has a zero glycemic index, contains no calories and is suitable for diabetics. The sweetness comes from mogrosides which make up approx 1% of the fruit by weight. Unlike stevia which sometimes have a distinct after taste luo han guo is quite mild. You only need small amount to sweeten your recipe.
enjoy 🙂
