Turmeric Coconut Ice-Cream



I came across this wonderful post for making 'Turmeric Milk'. It looked so bright and energising, I couldn't help taking a leaf from Wild Greens and Sardines post. Now, granted I didn't make the milk, I wanted to used what I have on hand. After tasting this golden delicious warming drink. I knew it had potential for something greater. So with whisk in hand and donning my lab coat I got to work. I added a small amount of coconut oil, for a better mouth feel, making it smoother on the palate.

Preparation

Place the coconut milk, oil, mixed spice, turmeric and star aniseed in a saucepan and bring to a gently boil, stirring so it doesn't stick to the pan. Remove from heat and add the agave syrup. Stop here if you just want a lovely warm drink.

For the ice-cream

Remove the star aniseed and leave liquid to cool, put in freezer to further cool down. 
In a blender put the frozen banana and mango and the cooked barley.  Blend till smooth adding the cooled turmeric liquid a little at a time. (If you have an ice-cream maker, put your cold liquid in and let it do its thing). Serve topped with nuts or agave syrup
