Green Tea Ice-Cream (homemade, sort of)

I espied this in the supermarket a few months back and bought it - instant japanese green tea ice cream mix! Now, for someone who likes instant gratification, this is really cool stuff. It had been quietly sitting in the cupboard these few months until today I decided that it was opportune to activate it (we are running low on ice-cream in the freezer).

All the instructions were in Japanese, so I just hazarded some smart guesses on how to make it
-mix milk and one egg yolk
-add in the instant mix and beat with electric whisk
-freeze for at least 3 hours

It took less than 10 minutes in all to do everything, and the end product tasted really rather nice! Lovely and creamy, though i think there is still some way to go if you compare to the real home-made stuff. Hmm....next gadget on my list, a mini ice-cream maker?
