Put your cream in a pot.
Cut the vanilla pod in half length-ways, then scrape the seeds out. Add those seeds (add the pod as well) and your sugar to the pot with the cream.
Get the pot on the stove then scald the cream. Which means get the cream nice and hot, then as soon as it is about to come to a boil, turn the heat off.
Transfer the cream to a bowl, then set aside for 10 minutes, allowing that vanilla to infuse in the cream. Cover the bowl with cling wrap, then keep in the fridge for at least half an hour to cool down.
Once the cream has cooled down put it in your food processor, along with your strawberries and vodka. Process until you have a smooth puree. Store in a plastic container and make sure you cover it.
Keep in the freezer overnight. Put the ice-cream back in the processor and blitz it up 2 more times in the middle of the freezing process. This helps to make the ice-cream smooth.

If you want to make this for children, or just don't want to add the vodka that is fine, but I recommend taking away about 30g of strawberries from the recipe.
