After allowing the mixture to cool, she transfers it into a container with a lid. The container is then placed inside a tub filled with ice and salt, which helps maintain a low temperature during the churning process.
Instead of using an ice cream machine, Hetal ties one end of a rope to the ceiling fan and secures the other end to the lid of the container. She then switches on the fan, allowing the container to move slowly and churn the mixture.
While the fan continues to churn the ice cream, she goes about her daily routine. After some time, she switches off the fan and opens the container to reveal creamy homemade ice cream.
