FRESH MANGO ICE-CREAM:

- wash en clean 700 gr. rhubarb, cut it in small pieces and cook with 60 ml water until the rhubarb falls apart completely.
- let the rhubarb cool of and clean in the meantime 300 gr. strawberries and mash them in a blender.
- use a spatula to mix the strawberries with the rhubarb and add 250 ml coconut milk and 4 tablespoons honey.
! freeze for at least one night, use a 1L box.
- use a warm knife to get the ice-cream out of the box and cut in 3 cm pieces add put them in a blender (not all at once!) 
- crush the ice-pieces (comes in handy if your blender has a "ice-crushing"  setting), the ice gets the consistence of sorbet ice-cream this way.

- nice with some grated chocolate!

favouriet Juni: IJS!

Precies op tijd voor de zomer, een blogje over ijs! Ik heb een tijdje moeten zoeken, maar nu heb ik het eerste ijs gevonden zonder kunstmatige toevoegingen, suiker en andere rotzooi en op basis van soja-en kokosmelk, dus lactosevrij. De basis van Frozen Dutch ijs is een minimum van 50% aan vers hollands fruit, groente en kruiden. Veelal van biologisch en uitsluitend van goede komaf. Ik vond deze smaak heel lekker en vooral geen vol en vet gevoel achteraf. De beker was zo leeg! De volgende keer proef ik hun sorbet-ijs, dus op basis van water en daarna is het volgende merk dat suiker-en zuivelvrij ijs maakt aan de beurt, word dus vervolgt! Oh ja: en ik ga proberen zelf ijs te maken...

Right on time for summer, a post about ice-cream! I have been searching a while, but now I found the first ice-cream without additive addition, sugar and other mess in it and on a base of soy-and coconut-milk, so it's lactose-free. The base of Frozen Dutch ice is a minimum of 50% of fresh, dutch fruit, vegetables and herbs. mostly biologic. I really liked this this of coconut and honey and I had no full or fat feeling afterwards. The cup was empty very fast!. Next time I try their sorbet-ice-cream, on a base of water and after that I try the next brand that's sugar-and diary free, so to be continued! And: I try to make ice-cream myself...
