Method

  1. Put the rhubarb, sugar and star anise into a saucepan with 2 tbsp water over a medium heat. Cook for 12-15 mins, stirring regularly, until the rhubarb has completely broken down and the liquid has thickened slightly. Discard the star anise and leave to cool fully.
  2. Whisk together the cream, custard and condensed milk using an electric whisk for 2 mins or until it has the texture of thick custard, then whisk in the rhubarb. Pour into a freezer-proof container and then freeze overnight.
  3. Scoop the ice cream into the cones and scatter with the rhubarb & custard creams.

Tip: Skip step 1 and use tinned rhubarb: blitz 150g drained rhubarb with 2 tbsp syrup until smooth.
