COCONUT AND LYCHEE SORBET

Steps:

• 1. Bring the water, sugar, and salt to a boil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring until the sugar is dissolved. Reduce the heat and simmer for 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and cool to room temperature.
• 2. Transfer the sugar syrup to a small bowl and refrigerate, tightly covered, for at least 1 hour, until thoroughly chilled, or for up to 2 days.
• 3. Whisk together the coconut milk and lychee juice in a large glass measure or bowl. Whisk in the chilled syrup and lime juice. Pour the mixture into an ice-cream maker and freeze according to the manufacturer's instructions. Transfer to a freezer container and freeze for at least 2 hours before serving. (The sorbet is best served on the day it is made.)
• 4. Spoon the sorbet into serving bowls or glasses to serve.

LYCHEE SORBET

Steps:

• Drain the lychees, reserving the syrup. Puree the lychees with 1/4 cup reserved syrup in a blender or food processor until smooth, about 20 seconds, Pour through a sieve, scraping with a whisk or wooden spoon to push as much of the fruit through as you can. Set aside.
• Combine the sugar and water in a small saucepan and place over low heat. Stir until the sugar dissolves completely. Raise heat and boil the syrup 1 minute. Remove from the heat.
• In a medium mixing bowl lightly beat the egg whites with a whisk or an electric beater util foamy, about 10 seconds. Slowly beat in the hot sugar syrup. Continue to beat until the meringue cools down slightly. Add the lychee puree. Cover and refrigerate until cold or overnight. The mixture will have foam on top, but will incorporate into the sorbet when it freezes.
• Stir the chilled mixture, then freeze in your ice cream machine according to the manufactures instructions. When finished, the sorbet will be soft but ready to eat. For firmer sorbet transfer to a freezer safe container, and freeze at least 2 hours.

REFRESHING LYCHEE & LIME SORBET

Steps:

• Drain the syrup from two cans of lychees into a small pan. Add the sugar and dissolve over a gentle heat. Bring to the boil for 1 min.
• Blitz the drained lychees in a food processor until very finely chopped. Pour in the lime juice and syrup with the blade still whirring - don't worry if the mix isn't perfectly smooth at this point. Tip into a 1-litre container and freeze for at least 6 hrs until solid.
• Break up the frozen mix, then return to the bowl of the processor. Tip in the egg white and whizz until thick, pale and smooth. Add zest from 1 lime. Return to the container and freeze again, ideally overnight. Serve in scoops with remaining lychees scattered with a remaining zest.
