A refreshing sorbet is my favourite way to end a meal on a hot summer’s day. It feels like you’re eating a treat, when really you’re mostly eating fruit. Frozen mango, berries and kiwifruit work well in sorbets like this too. It’s a great way to get kids to eat fruit and love it.
Ingredients
1
Paw paw, flesh of one, ripe and cut into chunks. Or papaya
2 tbsp
Icing sugar
2
Limes, juice of 2 and finely grated zest of 1
½ cup
Passionfruit syrup, store bought
Directions
Place paw paw in a dish lined with baking paper, and freeze until very hard (at least 8 hours).
Remove paw paw from freezer and thaw slightly on bench for 5 minutes before placing in a food processor with icing sugar, lime juice and zest.
Process until smooth and the consistency of sorbet. Transfer to a bowl and roughly fold through passionfruit syrup.
Serve immediately or re-freeze until ready to serve. Thaw for 10-15 min before serving to make it easier to scoop.
