This is my mums recipe but very yummy and rich. Very easy to make as well:
1lb raspberries
3/4lb red currants
4ozs sugar
1 tablespoon water
1/4pt of cream
Combine the berries, sugar and water in a sauce pan and bring to the boil.
Cook over a medium heat for 5 minutes.
Press the mix through a sieve to capture the seeds.
Leave to cool
Whip the double cream and fold into the fruit puree.
Spoon into a container and place in a freezer. After one hour take out and stir to break up any ice crystals, repeat at half hourly intervals if required.
Remove from freezer about 15 mins before serving.
Hope you enjoy it.

Can redcurrants be substituted for blackcurrants?
Never tried to make ice cream. Thought it might be terribly difficult, but will certainly try this as have redcurrants in the freezer, no rapsberries at present, but plenty of black currants and black berries.
Thanks for that recipe.
Brilliant - another use for my redcurrants!
Already making one batch of redcurrant and star anise liqueur and then 19 yr son old tried last years and decided that he liked it as well - so making another batch - for his Christmas present!
Redcurrants are good in raspberry jam too
