Mango sorbet

Easy, sugar free and vegan

My Alphonso Mango fixation continues in the form of a delicious sorbet. Really, if you can get your hands on some decent mangos, it really is worth your while cutting a few into pieces and keeping them in the freezer. If you can’t get hold of fresh Alphonso mangos to freeze yourself, then pre-frozen mango pieces will work equally as well in this recipe. Just defrost a cup to add to the frozen. This is a refreshing sorbet to put a spring in your step mid-week.

Mango sorbet

Prep time: 10 mins

INGREDIENTS

Makes 3-4 servings

1 cup of fresh mango pieces

2 cups of frozen mango pieces

METHOD

Place the fresh mango pieces in the blender and whizz until smooth. Don’t over blend or the mango will go gloopy.

Add the frozen mango and blend with the fresh mango until it forms a sorbet like consistency. If you are using a Vitamix, push the mixture down with the tamper. If you have a Blendtec, use the twister jar and if you have another type of blender, whizz the mixture and turn the machine off every 10 seconds or so, using spatula to scrape the mixture from the sides to combine the mixture when the machine is turned off.

If you over blend you may end up with a semi frozen drink – although it still will be delicious.

Serve at once.
