started in Thailand

We have always known ice cream to be, well….cold as snow.
But, what’s this new trend called Stir-fried ice cream? Well, such delicacy started in Thailand in 2009. It was introduced in the Philippines in 2015, thanks to a viral video of a man making the stir-fried ice cream in 3 minutes.
It showed the process of making such food item, how they “stir-fry” it on a cold plate and roll it up.
