Fried ice cream is a dessert made from a breaded scoop of ice cream that is quickly deep-fried creating a warm, crispy shell around the still-cold ice cream.
It's a treat that involves what seems impossible––placing a frozen treat into boiling oil and keeping it intact. Fortunately, the impossible works and the result is a truly delicious indulgence that is ideal for dessert, parties and festivals alike. If you've been used to ordering this dessert treat when eating out, be reassured that it's easy enough to make at home too, and it'll taste just as good.
Sounds risky. Is there any chance of the coating splitting and the hot oil splattering all over. Also how long is it after frying that the icecream starts melting?
Hi Chris, its not risky at all :)do give it a try.
The main thing is to Freeze the Ice Creme balls as much as possible i usually make them a couple of days ahead and freeze them till they are needed. And also ensure that you have a complete coating. most of the time the Ice Cream is nice and almost frozen inside and not affected much by the heat.
Lovely
