Ingredients




Grated rind and juice of 3 limes
75 grams Caster sugar, (3oz)
3 tablespoons Clear honey
500 grams Lychees, peeled and stoned (1lb)

Preparation

1 Place the lime rind and juice in a saucepan with the sugar and honey. Stir over a moderate heat until the sugar has dissolved. 2 Place the lychees and lime syrup in a blender and blend until smooth. 3 Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and process following the manufacturers guidelines. Alternatively, pour into a freezer-proof container and freeze for 2-3 hours, stirring every 1/2 - 1 hour to break up the ice crystals. 4 Remove from the freezer 30 minutes before serving. 5 Notes For an exciting twist to the recipe, add 1-2 red chillies with most of the seeds removed to the lychees before blending for a delicious heat to the sorbet. 6 NOTES : An ideal aperitif, dessert or palate cleanser to be served between courses for a special occasion.
