Green Apple Sorbet

Ingredients:

4 large Granny Smith apples

Juice of one large lemon

200g caster sugar

400ml water

4 tbsp liquid glucose

Method:

  1. Quarter and core the apples (but do not peel), then toss with the lemon juice.  Place in a single layer in a shallow plastic container and freeze for a good hour (this helps to intensify the colour).

  2. Meanwhile, dissolve the sugar in the water in a heavy-based saucepan over a low heat.  Bring to the boil and cook on a medium heat for 5 minutes.  Cool, then mix in the glucose.

  3. Whizz the ice-cold apples in.a food processor, gradually adding about a third of the syrup to make a fine puree.  Scrape down the sides of the bowl once or twice as you do this.

  4. Mix in the rest of the syrup then pass through a sieve into a bowl, rubbing the back of a paddle to extract as much juice as possible.

  5. Transfer to an ice cream machine.  Churn until almost solid, then transfer to a rigid plastic container, seal and freeze.
