Ingredients

3 large	lemons, preferably unwaxed
175 g	icing sugar
425 ml	double cream
3 tbsp	iced water

Instructions

Zest two of the lemons. Cut several thin strips of zest from the third lemon using a vegetable peeler or paring knife and set aside for later decoration. Squeeze the juice from all three lemons. Place the juice and grated zest into a bowl and add the sugar. Stir to combine, cover and set aside for at least 30 minutes for the flavours to develop.

In a bowl whip the cream with the iced water until soft peaks form and then whisk in the lemon mixture. Transfer to a shallow freezer-proof, covered container and freeze for at least 3 hours, but up to 8 hours if necessary, until firm.

Transfer container from freezer to refrigerator about 30 minutes before serving to soften sufficiently. Decorate with 2 or 3 strips of zest per serving.
