Ok but was too hard and icy even after being out of the freezer for 30 mins, had to saw it into portions! wouldn't make again.

I wouldn't make this again. It was out of the freezer for 45 minutes and I'd only made up half of the recipe. The texture wasn't overly appealing, although the stem ginger gave it a nice flavour. I'll be going back to the coffee semifreddo recipe when I need a get ahead dessert in future and the orange version is also good.

Agree with adding 1 desert spoonful lemon curd, delicious. added more ginger bisciuts, took out the freezer and cut off enough for 2 about 30/40 mins before serving, a real winner

Everyone loved this as it was refreshing and not too sweet... most of us even had 2 slices :-) Agree with others that it definitely needs a minimum of 45min out of the freezer before serving. Will be making this again!

Made this night to take to a friend's place for the weekend... didn't have lemon curd so I added a bit of honey instead (found the mix not quite sweet enough). The proof is in the eating... looking forward to having this for dessert tomorrow!

This was really lovely and so easy to do.................but its essential to take it out of the freezer at least 30-40 mins before required.
I added lemon juice as well as the rind, next time will try adding lemon curd also as others have suggested.

I would (will!) try making this with Yeo Valley's scrummy Lemon Curd Yogurt; it's fabulous for all sorts of quick puds.

Yummy! This went down a treat with guests. It was really easy to make and great as a make-ahead dessert. Agree with others that its definitely worth adding lemon curd, and that it definitely needs at least 45mins out of the freezer before serving.

Lovely! Followed Daniela's advice and added some lemon curd.
Very easy and quick to make, no measuring needed so can just be thrown together in 10 minutes.
Very filling, I thought it was more suited to feed 10 rather than 6 so will halve the recipe next time.

bastienetantoine - you could try making a sugar syrup and putting some crystallised ginger pieces in it but I don't know if this would work. You may also possibly find it in the English section of some of the large hypermarkets.

Hello! I'm French and one of my English Friend gives me this good recipe. Here in France I do not find "stem ginger in sirup". Can you says me if you know how I can do. Thanks you and sorry for my English...
Nice to know this @site.

I would take it out of the freezer at least 45 mins before serving next time. it was alittle too frozen for my liking but tasted lovely all the same

This was a big hit with my dinner guests. I added two tablespoons of lemon curd to the yoghurt mixture, which gave a stronger lemon flavour and worked very well.
