I used frozen kiwi fruit (that I had prepared earlier) and made the sorbet in the afternoon. I had pretty much set by evening without using an ice cream maker.
It didn't make a lot but enough for four small servings. It was a really refreshing flavour, quite sharp but really nice. A good use for extra kiwifruit.
Ingredients
- 8 ripe kiwi fruits (I peeled and froze them in advance)
- 2 fresh limes
- 2/3 cup sugar
- 1 cup water
Directions
- Peel and quarter the kiwi fruit.
- Juice the lime.
- Dissolve sugar in water.
- Combine the sugar water, lime juice and chopped kiwi in ablender.
- Puree until the mixture is very smooth.
- Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker. (Or just into a dish in the freezer if using frozen kiwi fruit)
- Freeze according to the specific machine's instructions. Freezing should take about 30 minutes in a small gel canister ice cream maker.
- Let the sorbet harden for an additional 30 minutes in the freezer.
- Serve immediately.
Yum! Would go nicely with a splash of vodka in a glass too I bet :)
ReplyDeleteYes, we discussed that, but the vodka would stop it freezing
