BLOOD ORANGE SORBET

caster sugar 100g
blood orange juice 500ml, (from 7-8 blood oranges or a carton of pure blood orange juice)

Method

To make the sorbet

Step 1

Put the sugar and 100ml of the juice in a pan. Heat gently until the sugar has dissolved, then simmer for a minute. Cool completely.
Step 2

Pour through a fine sieve into a bowl, then sieve the rest of the juice into the bowl and mix.
Step 3

Pour into an ice-cream maker and churn until frozen. Freeze until needed. If you don’t have an ice-cream machine, pour into a freezable container and put in the freezer. Take out and give it a really good stir every couple of hours until frozen.
