Ice Cream Fry(Fried Ice Cream Balls)

Pancake balls stuffed with frozen Icecream and fried little

Recipe by christy gerald of Dubai, AE

The dessert is made by a scoop of ice cream frozen well and coated in egg, bread crumbs and briefly deep frying it.It may be sprinkled with cinnamon and sugar,though cream or honey may be used as well.

Ingredients vegetarian 4 servings


    • 250 gm butterscotch Ice cream -frozen for about 40 mins in the freeezer
    • 2 Eggs -beaten well
    • 4 tbsp maida
    • 2 tsp corn flour
    • 1/2 tsp cooking soda
    • 1/2 tsp salt-little only
    • 4 tbsp grated coconut mixed with 1 tbsp sugar + 5 tsp fresh cream
    • 3 tbsp sugar -powdered mixed with 1/4 tsp cinnamon powder
    • 1 tsp vanilla essence(optional)
    • 50 ml honey
    • 2 tsp +2 tsp ghee
    • 250 ml refined oil with 2 tsp ghee-for deep frying

    Directions

    1. Beat the eggs well and add maida, corn flour,salt,cooking soda and little water.Mix this well like pancake batter (consistency).Add vanilla essence (optional) and mix it well.
    2. Heat oil + ghee mix in a sauce or frying pan and spread the pancake batter and do little thin and puri sized pancakes(so that u can roll it well).Make one side half-done and similarly do all the pan cakes.
    3. Spread the fresh cream and coconut mixture over it,sprinkle the powdered sugar and cinnamon powder mix and place one scoop of frozen Icecream inside(u should scoop the Ice cream well before freezing it) and seal the edges with maida flour mix and deep fry in oil for 1-2 mins till it turn little brown.
    4. Cut the deep fried Icre cream balls into halves and drizzle honey over them and serve immediately.The extremely low temperature(frozen state) of the ice cream prevents it from
    5. melting while being fried.

    Hi everyone,instead of trying with pancakes ,try kneading the same ingredients (+ 1 tbsp sugar )as dough and spread small puri like round doughs,spread with grated coconut stuffing and place the ice-cream balls iside and deep-fry them.Its a lot easier and tastes so good-when done.

    Hi Anisha!,Thanks for ur interest in this recipe.The Ice cream stuffed inside won't melt to a liquid state but to a Soft texture( that we are taking Ice cream usually) since its being frozen first and then deep-fried for 2-3 mins only(is not making any difference to the Ice cream).Wait till I post a pic this weekend.

    I wish to thank Ameena,Ritika,Pankhuri and Swati from the bottom of my heart for their appreciations.Hi Ameena!,U can freeze and then scoop the icecream but it's a tough job(the icecream shd be frozen first)as it turns hard.One more option I forgot to add .U can dip the sealed pancakes in Egg- maida batter again and roll it in breadcrumbs and then deep-fry this Icecream stuffed balls in Oil.(this will turn out crispy and yumm,believe me).Happy Cooking!.
