Incidentally, if you don't have a machine and can't be arsed with the beating routine, then just make something that's not technically ice-cream at all but hits all the same buttons. Aldo Zilli's pine-nut semifreddo is brilliant. You do need three bowls, and preferably an electric whisk, but it's very easy to make and freezes quickly. Note if serving it to others that it has uncooked eggs in it. You'll notice a caramel theme developing, but the caramel in this one wants to be a fair bit lighter than in the ice-cream above.
