On her
First of all, you need to add 250g of lemon curd to a mixing bowl, and she advised that a sharper flavour is better.
She added that if you have half a lemon, you can add in some extra juice for 'more bite.'
Then you need to take a 500g pot of custard, and add it a 'bit as a time' to the curd and mix in well.

The foodie advised that you can also use vanilla pudding if you don't have vanilla custard as it's 'pretty much the same thing.'
Once you have evenly combined the two ingredients, add the mixture of a shallow baking tin that has been lined with non-stick paper.
She said that the shallower the mixture is spread, the quicker it will freeze.
Add your tin to the freezer and it should be solid in around three hours, although she kept hers in overnight.

, you need to break the solid custard into pieces with your fingers or a blunt knife.
You then add the bits into a food processor and start blitzing.

Hers went into a powdery state, before later turning into a 'recognisable soft ice cream consistency.'
She shared: 'At which point you can eat it at a very soft scoop stage, or you can scrape it into a tub, swirl through some more of the lemon curd, and put it back in the freezer to firm up.
'Then you can scoop and eat up all that lovely vitamin C.
'To my mind, combating scurvy has never tasted so good.'
People were quick to comment on her video, which has racked up over 30,000 likes.
One said: 'Love this recipe! will definitely be trying this.'
Another added: 'This would be very dangerous in my freezer. That being said, it wouldn't spend a lot of time there.'
And a third commented: 'This looks absolutely delicious!!!!!!'
