Fresh lime basil sorbet recipe details
- Ingredients:
- 1 cup fresh squeezed lime juice (8 to 10 limes)
- 1 cup of water
- 1 cup simple sugar syrup (1 cup sugar plus 1 cup water, boiled then cooled)
- 12 whole basil leaves
- 1 egg white (optional)
This easy breakfast starter or luncheon dessert is refreshing and tangy. It is easy to prepare and looks great on a black plate.
Combine all ingredients into a freezer-friendly container and freeze 6 to 8 hours or overnight. Remove from freezer and allow to soften a little. Put chunks of frozen mixture into a food processor and process until all crystals have disappeared and mixture is smooth. Re-pack into container and keep frozen until needed. This will keep for up to 2 months. If you prefer a lighter, less icy sorbet, add 1 egg white during processing.
Great served with Marinated Melon.
