Watermelon Sorbet
From EatingWell: Summer 2002,
12 servings, 1/2 cup each,
20 minutes,
3 1/2 hours (including chilling & freezing times)
Ingredients
1/2 cup sugar
3/4 cup water
6 cups watermelon chunks, (4-pound watermelon), seeded
2 tablespoons lime juice
Preparation
Combine sugar and water in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature, about 45 minutes. Cover and refrigerate until chilled, about 1 hour.
Place watermelon and lime juice in a food processor; process until smooth. Set a sieve over a large bowl and press the puree through to remove tiny seeds. Whisk in the sugar syrup.
Pour the watermelon mixture into a shallow metal pan and freeze until ice crystals form around the edges, about 30 minutes. Stir the ice crystals into the center of the pan and return to the freezer; repeat every 20 minutes until all the liquid is frozen.
Serve immediately or transfer to a storage container and let harden in the freezer for 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Serve in chilled dishes.
