In a saucepan, mix powdered milk, cornstarch, granulated sugar, and sweetened condensed milk.

Freeze until it becomes semi-solid.
Prepare the Mung Beans Paste:
Rinse the mung beans thoroughly and drain them.
Steam the mung beans until they are soft and fully cooked.
Blend the cooked mung beans with sugar, salt, and fresh milk until smooth. Set aside.
Whip the Ice Cream Mixture:
Remove the semi-frozen ice cream base from the freezer.
Scrape the mixture into a large bowl and whip it using an electric mixer for about 10 minutes.
Add the melted SP (emulsifier) and continue mixing for another 15 minutes.
Incorporate the blended mung bean paste into the mixture and whip for an additional 5 minutes until fully combined.
Final Freezing:
Transfer the mixture to a container and freeze for at least 24 hours to achieve the perfect creamy texture.
