lychee sorbet


this afternoon..made lychee sorbet in quite a rush..i have only a couple of hours to spare before Yeemei picks us up and head to Pyramid for another round of shopping..good thing this is a pretty easy one..i come to conclusion that i did not screw up this one..haha

recipe..recipe..

ingredients
1 565g can lychees in heavy syrup
150ml freshly squezzed orange juice
1 tsp grated ginger
mint leaves for garnishing

method
1. place lychees with syrup, orange juice, and ginger in blender. Blend until smooth.
2. pour mixture into a freezer-proof container,place in freezer for about 2hours until almost set.
3.using a fork, break up iced mixture and whip in processor or blender until smooth.return mixture to freezer to set for 30-45mins or until solid.
4. dish into serving bowls.garnish with mint leaves.


tada...the not so photogenic lychee sorbet..

when i left home..the sorbet wasn't exactly ready yet..and i was alil worried that my bro will gulp the whole thing down the throat before i come home..so had to msg him with a lil warning..haha

in the end..i enjoyed chilling out with this lychee sorbet..the cool icy feeling and that mild gingery taste is great..i thought that it was alil sweet..though mum and bro had their own say about ms. lychee sorbet..

"feels abit sour la..you should add milk in it.overall ok la" ..if i added milk into it..wont it be a smoothie then?
"i dont like the ginger taste la" ..aiya too bad for you la..hhaha

i guess different people would grade this sorbet differently..at the end of the day..it's what taste that suits you the best..without the ginger, the sorbet wouldn't have that extra ommph..if you think it could be too sour..add sugar lo..hahaha

cheers..
