Instructions
1.
Combine the cream, milk and vanilla essence in a pan and bring it to the
point of boiling. Set it aside to cool slightly.

Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk the egg yolks and the sugar together until
it is thick and pale in colour.

Stirring continuously, pour the milk/cream mix onto the whisked egg and
sugar. Ensure that the sugar is completely dissolved.

Return the mix to the pan and over a very low heat; continue to stir it until
the mix coats the back of the spoon.

Allow the mix to cool thoroughly.

Pour the mix into the Ice Cream Maker and mix it until it is firm (about 30
minutes).
