Orange Sorbet Recipe
Orange Sorbet Recipe with Oranges, Water & Sugar.
INGREDIENTS
1 pint (550ml) Water
6 oz (175g) Sugar
3 Oranges

Put the Water, Sugar and grated rind from one Orange in a saucepan and gently dissolve the Sugar. Rapidly boil for about 5 minutes. Allow to cool. In the meantimes squeeze out the juice from the Oranges and scrape away any extra flesh from the un-grated Orange halves. Add the strained juice to the Sugar & Water mixture when cool. Pour into a shallow (preferably plastic) container and put in the freezer. Stir occasionally so that lumps of ice do not form. Serve the ice in the Orange Halves. Decorate with Angelica and serve with langue de chat biscuits. Substitute Lemons for the Oranges if preferred. Serves 4.
