Ingredients:
4 cups fresh fruit
1/2 cup fresh orange juice
sugar to taste
1 pinch salt
mint or fresh fruit -- for garnish
Fresh fruit:
4 cups of sliced strawberries orpeeled
peaches, nectarines, kiwi fruit, bananas, papayas, or mangos. Before freezing,
toss peach, nectarine, or banana slices with about 2 tablespoons lemon
juice to prevent browning.
Instructions:
Spread sliced fruit in one layer
on a baking sheet. Freeze, uncovered, until frozen solid.
Place frozen fruit and orange juice
in a food processor or blender. Process until smooth, stopping to scrape
work bowl as necessary. If your machine struggles to process the frozen
fruit, let fruit stand 10 to 15 minutes at room temperature to thaw slightly.
Depending on the size of your blender or food processor, you may have to
process fruit in several batches.
Add sugar and salt (amount of sugar
will depend on the sweetness of the fruit).
* Timesaver Tip: Sorbets can be
made about an hour before serving and held in the freezer. After about
an hour, the edges get icy and the mixture must be re-processed.
Quantity:
Makes 6 servings.
