Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 715 grams Frozen mango (Fresh works too but this is a cheats version... ssshhh)
  • 75 grams Sugar (Caster or superfine)
  • 15 ml Lime juice (Or the juice of about half a fresh lime)

Instructions
 

Prep

  • Weigh/ measure out your ingredients

To Make

  • Place all 3 ingredients into the blender and blitz until smooth, possibly 3 minutes or so depending on your blender. Scrape down the sides and blitz again briefly
  • If using an ice cream maker, follow user guidelines for best results. Eat immediately or place in a resealable, freezer-safe container and store in the freezer
  • If making the sorbet manually, scrape sorbet mixture into a resealable, freezer-safe container and place in the freezer for 1 hour. After the hour remove, mix well with a spatula or a spoon, making sure to scrape down the sides of the container and place back in the freezer. Repeat the process every hour until a smooth, frozen sorbet texture is achieved

To Serve

  • Store in the freezer but remove 10-15 minutes (depending on your ambient temperature) ahead of serving to allow the sorbet to soften. Serve as desired

Notes

  • Whatever recipe you are making, get into the habit of tasting it at various points. Just because a recipe says a dish should be a certain way doesn't mean you have to agree. After step 1 of  the 'To Make' section, taste it. If you think it needs a little more sugar then add it here and mix again. Fruit can vary in its sweetness so a recipe may need to vary. The more experienced you get with any recipe or any style of cooking, the more you will trust your own palate. I'm a firm believer that when you make a recipe it becomes yours to adjust and play with. Sure, certain recipes require precise measurements for technical reasons but flavour is subjective and personal. Never be afraid to make a recipe your own or to use it as a starting point for an entirely new creation.
