Try this light and fruity berry dessert for a fresh finish to your summer festivities.
Ingredients:
  • 450g redcurrants, stalks removed, washed, drained
  • 185ml water
  • 200g caster sugar
  • 1 eggwhite
  • Chilled champagne or sparkling wine, to serve
Instructions:
  • In a saucepan over low heat, gently simmer redcurrants with water and sugar until sugar dissolves, about 5 minutes. Increase heat to high and bring to a slight simmer. Stir occasionally for 2-3 minutes until the syrup slightly thickens. Remove from heat and let cool.
  • Chill a shallow metal container in the freezer. Strain the syrup through a fine sieve into a bowl and press the pulp through using the back of a wooden spoon. Discard the seeds and excess pulp.
  • 1. Pour the redcurrant syrup into the chilled pan, cover with foil, and freeze for 6 hours until solid. Quickly break up the frozen mixture with a metal spoon and transfer to a food processor. Add the egg white and blend until smooth. Place back in the container, cover with foil, and freeze for 6 more hours until firm.
  • Dole out the sorbet into champagne flutes, then top with champagne and serve promptly.
