Ingredients

Method

1.To make the praline ice-cream, heat the milk with the vanilla bean until it is just about to boil. Remove and set aside.
2.Beat the yolks with the sugar until thick, then stir in the milk, mixing until smooth.
3.Strain the mixture into a clean saucepan and stir over low heat until thickened. This will take about 8-10 minutes. When the mixture coats the back of a wooden spoon, remove and transfer to a clean bowl sitting in a larger bowl of iced water.
4.Stir in the double cream and leave to cool completely.
5.Churn in an ice-cream machine following the manufacturers instructions, then fold in the praline.
6.Spoon into a metal container and freeze.
7.Place a large scoop of ice-cream into a serving bowl and serve with biscotti and a shot of espresso on the side.

Freeze freshly made ice cream for four hours, then allow it to sit at room temperature for a few minutes before serving.
