Lemon Sorbet
Serves 8
INGREDIENTS:
300g caster sugar
400ml water
Juice of 6 lemons (cut the lemons in half through the centre)
Grated zest of 2 lemons
METHOD:
1. Pour the sugar and water into a saucepan and placeover medium heat. Bring to a boil, stirring every few minutes until all the sugar has dissolved.
2. Remove from the heat and stir in the lemon juice and zest. Pour into a large plastic container and let cool.
3. Once cooled, put the sorbet in a freezer, stirring every 30 minutes so that no large ice crystals form.
4. While the sorbet is setting, scoop out the fibres from the halved lemons and slice off just enough of the bottoms of the lemons so that they will stand upright. Put in the freezer.
5. Once the sorbet has set, scoop into the frozen lemon cups and serve straight away
