Very Basic Mango Lime Sorbet Recipes

Steps:

• Combine 1/2 cup water and sugar in a small saucepan and stir. Bring to a simmer and simmer until sugar has dissolved. Remove from heat.
• Combine all ingredients in a blender and purée until completely smooth. Transfer to a bowl or container and chill overnight in refrigerator.
• (Chill a 1-quart container in the freezer while you spin the sorbet.) Remove bowl from refrigerator and blend the mango purée again for 1 to 2 minutes in a blender or with an immersion blender. Add to ice cream maker and spin for about 25 minutes. Transfer to chilled container and freeze for 2 hours or longer to pack.
• Once frozen solid, allow to soften in refrigerator for 30 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Peel and cut up the mango into chunks. Puree mango and 2 tablespoons of lime juice in a blender or with an immersion blender. Set aside. (Don't worry if the puree is tart, the lime juice mellows in the freezing process.)
• Mix the gelatin into the remaining 3 tablespoons of lime juice in a small heatproof bowl. Place the bowl in a small saucepan of simmering water and stir until the gelatin dissolves. Add gelatin-lime juice mix to the mango puree.
• Whisk egg whites to soft peaks. Add sugar or Splenda.
• Gently fold the egg whites into the mango.
• (If you are using an ice cream maker, follow the directions for your machine here. In mine, this takes about 20-22 minutes.)
• Place the mixture into a freezer proof bowl for 2 hours. Take the bowl out of the freezer and mix to break up the ice chunks and return to the freezer. Allow it to freeze until firm or solid.
• If sorbet is frozen solid prior to serving, place in the refrigerator for 10 minutes before serving.
• Scoop sorbet into bowls and garnish with lime zest strips.

Steps:

• Peel the mangoes with a vegetable peeler, cut as much of the flesh away from the stone as you can, put it in a food processor or blender.
• Add the sugar, lime juice and 200ml water. Blend for a few minutes, until the mango is very smooth and the sugar has dissolved - rub a little of the mixture between your fingers, if it still feels gritty, blend for a little longer. Pour into a container and put in the freezer for a few hours.
• Scrape the sorbet back into the blender (if it's very solid, leave at room temperature for 5-10 mins first). Whizz until you have a slushy mixture, then pour back into the tin and freeze for another hour or so.
• Repeat step 3. Freeze until solid (another hour or two). Will keep covered in the freezer for three months.

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with plastic wrap.
• Wash and dry mangoes. Using a sharp knife, remove the 2 flat sides of each mango, cutting lengthwise alongside pit and cutting as close to pit as possible so that mango flesh is in 2 large pieces. With a spoon carefully scoop flesh from mango sides into a blender, leaving shells intact. With a knife cut remaining flesh from pit and add to blender. Add syrup and lime juice to blender and purée until smooth. Put mango shells on baking sheet and freeze while making sorbet.
• Freeze mango purée in an ice-cream maker. Scoop sorbet into frozen shells, mounding slightly, and smooth surfaces. Freeze filled mango shells at least 6 hours, or until frozen hard. Frozen sorbets in shells may be wrapped individually in plastic wrap and kept in freezer 1 week.

Steps:

• Place all ingredients in a blender; cover and process until smooth. Serve immediately. If desired, for a firmer texture, cover and freeze at least 3 hours.

Steps:

• Peel off lime zest using a vegetable peeler to create long strands.
• Combine confectioners' sugar, water, and lime zest in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Boil for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes. Refrigerate simple syrup until completely cold, about 1 hour. Remove and discard lime zest and stir in rum.
• Place mango in a blender; blend until pureed. Chill in the refrigerator.
• Combine mango puree and chilled simple syrup in an ice cream maker and freeze according to manufacturer's instructions until it reaches soft-serve consistency, about 20 minutes. Transfer sorbet to an airtight container and freeze until firm, about 2 hours.

Steps:

• Combine mango, orange juice and honey in a blender and process until smooth.
• Pour mixture into an 8-inch square pan, cover and freeze until firm.
• To serve, spoon into individual dessert dishes, garnish with lime curls and lime rind, if desired.

Steps:

• In medium saucepan over medium heat, bring the water, sugar, and lime juice to a simmer.
• Cover the pan, lower the heat slightly, and cook for about 3 minutes, until the sugar is dissolved.
• Remove from the heat and cool the mixture to room temperature.
• Stir in the lime zest.
• Chill the mixture for 2 hours.
• Freeze in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Steps:

• Make simple syrup: Add sugar to water in small saucepan. Stir over medium heat until sugar is fully dissolved. Raise heat and bring syrup to a boil; boil one minute, then remove from heat and allow to cool completely.
• Puree thawed mango and lime juice in a food processor.
• Stir simple syrup into mango puree. Refrigerate a few hours to be certain puree is cool.
• Follow the manufacturer's instructions for your ice cream maker at this point. If you don't have one, pour into a pan and put in freezer; pull out every hour and stir (for 3-4 hours).
