Ingredients
- 2 Granny Smith apples peeled, cored and quartered
- 1 cup water
- ½ cup icing sugar
- 1 liter apple juice
- Drop of green food colouring
Instructions
- Boil apples in a saucepan with water and icing sugar. Once apples are soft, remove pan from heat and blend with a hand blender or in a food processor.
- Add apple juice and mix well. If you want it to look a little greener, add a drop of green food coloring; mix very well.
- Pour mixture through a strainer into a rectangular container and freeze for 5 to 6 hours, until it’s frozen around the edges but not completely through.
- Remove from freezer and rake sorbet with a fork, mixing it up well. Alternatively scoop it out and blend in a food processor until smooth. Raking it gives you a granita texture; blending it makes it velvety and smooth.
- Refreeze. If desired, blend it twice for an even creamier texture. Remove from the freezer about 10 minutes before serving to soften it a little.
what about a lovely fresh fruit salad? Or roasted fresh figs. After a heavy Yomtov dinner a light sorbet is delicious. You can make two other flavours and serve a trio of sorbets.
sound delicious. what could you serve this with for a desert?
