Simple sorbet
No Ice cream maker? No problem. this sorbet uses a food processor to turn frozen fruit into a delicious frozen dessert. Store-bought frozen fruit makes this a snap all year round. If its summer just wash and freeze whatever you bring home from the market (peel the fruit first) and a couple of hours later YOU ARE READY TO GO!
Ingredients
1 pound frozen strawberries or other fruit
1/2 cup yogurt or silken tofu
1/4 cup sugar more or less
water as needed
Put all the ingredients except water into a food processor and process until pureed and creamy, stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed. If the fruit does not break down completely, gradually add some water through the feed tube a tablespoon or two at a time, being careful not to overprocess the sorbet into liquid. serve immediately or freeze!
Some Ideas: For chocolate cherry sorbet, skip the sugar, add 4 ounces of melted bittersweet chocolate, and use 12 ounces of frozen cherries. As long as you keep the total volume of solid ingredients to about a pound, the combinations are endless!! Enjoy.
