Ingredients

QuantityIngredient
Grated rind and juice of 3 limes
75gramsCaster sugar; (3oz)
3tablespoonsClear honey
500gramsLychees; peeled and stoned
; (1lb)

Directions

Place the lime rind and juice in a saucepan with the sugar and honey. Stir over a moderate heat until the sugar has dissolved.

Place the lychees and lime syrup in a blender and blend until smooth.

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 ½ - 1 hour to break up the ice crystals.

Remove from the freezer 30 minutes before serving.

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.
