I adore ice cream, ice lollies and almost any frozen treat, but sorbet will always have a special place for me. It’s super fruity and oh so refreshing and with the hotter days arriving what better way to end a meal then with a lovely refreshing fruity sorbet, and to me mango’s scream out summer. Also let’s face it I love a kitchen short cut, an easy way to do things makes mine and you lives easier, so I am going to share how to make this super easy mango sorbet.

Easy to make

As I mentioned and now promise this is so easy to make, there is no need for sugar syrups and weird pre chilling times and leaving things overnight before even getting to the churning part.

Ingredients

All you have in here is fresh mango, icing sugar (powdered sugar) and a little lemon juice, yep that’s it just those 3 ingredients. The icing sugar acts as a sweetener and a thickener so you can miss out all those other ingredients a normal sorbet requires and the lemon juice gives it a lovely little tartness that helps cut through the sugar.

Method

I am really lucky, Michael bought me a KitchenAid for my birthday last year and it came with the ice cream maker attachment, but you can make sorbet by hand it just takes a bit longer. This recipe is ideally made with an ice cream maker but I will give details of what to do if you don’t have one.

Blend it up

All you need to do it chop your mango’s up and blend them, then add in your icing sugar (powdered sugar) and lemon juice blend again then churn in your ice cream maker in accordance with the manufactures instructions. Then pop it in a freezable container and freeze for at least 2 hours. Then hey presto you are good to go!

By hand

It can be done by hand and pre KitchenAid ice cream maker that’s exactly how I did it. After blending my fruit I used to place the mixture in a shallow pan and pop it in the freezer, then take it out every 30 minutes for the first 2 to 3 hours to give it a stir to prevent crystallisation. Then I transferred it to a deeper dish and covered it and let it freeze for several hours or over night. Like I said it does take a little longer but it will still give you great results 😀
