Ingredients
200g
pistachios
500ml
Oatly custard, chilled
125g
icing sugar, sifted
1/2
ripe avocado, peeled and stoned
2Tbsp.
vegetable oil
1/4tsp.
almond extract
Directions
Step 1Put 175g of the pistachios in a medium pan and cover with cold water. Soak for 5min, then slowly bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Simmer for 1min then check whether they are ready to be skinned; carefully lift one out and see if the skin will slip off. If it does, drain the pistachios, then cover with cold water and pinch off and discard the skins with your fingers (they should come away easily).
Step 2Roughly chop the reserved pistachios. Place skinned pistachios in a high speed blender with the remaining ingredients (except the chopped pistachios) and blend until smooth. Transfer to a 1.2 litre freezer-safe container, folding in the reserved chopped pistachios as you go. Freeze for 8hr, or ideally overnight, until set.
Step 3To serve, allow to soften in the fridge for 1hr then scoop into balls.
