Peel and deseed the litchi. Add it to a blender jar.
Add milk and process till smooth. Set aside.
In a large bowl add condensed milk and heavy whipping cream.
Blend till the mixture thickens using a hand held blender or stand mixer fitted with a balloon whisk.
Then add the blended litchi mix and whip it in.
Transfer to an ice cream container and freeze for 10-12 hours. Remove and serve using an ice cream scoop.

The recipe works the best with fresh litchi. However, use frozen or canned litchi if fresh is unavailable.

As the season for litchi is short lived, you can peel, deseed the fruit and freeze it for future use. Frozen litchi is not a treat to eat but works well in ice creams and shakes.

Make a big batch or a small one, the recipe works well. Maintain the proportions when scaling up or down.

The same recipe will work in the ice cream machine too. However, add the litchi milk mixture as the ice cream begins to form.

While full fat cream works best for the recipe, use lower fat cream if you desire. The end result will not be as creamy but still works.
