Anyone tried Delia's Fig Ice Cream with success? The pureed figs with milk mixture was very thick. Is it how its meant to be? How do you then make a custard with such a thick mixture? Anyway, I pressed on following Delia's instruction to the end, and the ice cream turned out to be very grainy, and it kind of "falls apart" when I scoop it. Any experience you can share would be most appreciated. (ps: I make ice cream without an ice cream maker.) Thanks!

Try again - I have made this lots (also without an icecream maker) and though slightly grainy the flavour was fantastic. It is particularly good with sticky toffee puddings.....
