Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 100 g caster sugar
  • juice and grated rind of 1 orange
  • 500 g blackberries
  • 2 - 3 tbsp cassis
  • 1 large egg white

Instruction

  • Place 100g (3½oz) sugar in a saucepan with 175ml (6floz) water and heat gently stirring until the sugar dissolves. Remove from the heat and stir in the orange juice and zest.
  • Blitz 500g (1lb2oz) blackberries in a food processor and push through a nylon sieve to remove the seeds. Stir in the cooled sugar syrup and 2- 3tbsp cassis.
  • Pour into a rigid, shallow container and freeze, stirring with a fork every 30 minutes or so until ice crystals start to form and it feels slushy. Alternatively, if you have an ice cream machine, churn the mixture until it starts to freeze.
  • When the sorbet is slushy, whisk 1 egg white until standing on soft peaks. Add to the sorbet and beat to combine.
  • Continue to freeze, beating every 30 minutes or so until completely frozen. If making more than a few days in advance, transfer to an airtight container.
