Cooking Steps
1
- Peel the mango and chop the flesh. Zest lemon to get a pinch then halve.
- Strip the mint leaves. Reserve a few mint leaves for garnish.
- Tip: Freeze the fruit the day before so you can immediately make and eat the sorbets.
2
- Add the mango, mint, the juice of the lemon, lemon zest, half the sugar and 60 ml water to a large bowl.
- Puree with a hand blender, blend or food processor until smooth.
Tip: If using frozen fruit and the blending is difficult, wait a moment for the fruit to soften slightly. Add a splash of warm water to speed up the process, if necessary.
3
- Add sorbet to freezer-safe bowls.
- Chill in the freezer for at least 3 hours. Stir the sorbets every 30 minutes for the first 2 hours.
Tip: You can also chill the sorbets in the freezer overnight.
4
- Remove sorbet from the freezer 5 minutes before serving.
- Use an ice cream scoop to scoop into bowls or ramekins. Garnish with the reserved mint leaves. Enjoy!
