Method

  • step 1

    Peel the mangoes with a vegetable peeler, cut as much of the flesh away from the stone as you can, put it in a food processor or blender.

  • step 2

    Add the sugar, lime juice and 200ml water. Blend for a few minutes, until the mango is very smooth and the sugar has dissolved – rub a little of the mixture between your fingers, if it still feels gritty, blend for a little longer. Pour into a container and put in the freezer for a few hours.

  • step 3

    Scrape the sorbet back into the blender (if it’s very solid, leave at room temperature for 5-10 mins first). Whizz until you have a slushy mixture, then pour back into the tin and freeze for another hour or so.

  • step 4

    Repeat step 3. Freeze until solid (another hour or two). Will keep covered in the freezer for three months.

RECIPE TIPS
BEFORE SCOOPING

Leave the sorbet at room temperature for 5-10 mins before scooping. Warm your ice cream scoop in hot water to make scooping a little easier.

I sadly didn't have 3 mangos but I used 1 mango and 2 oranges with a little bit of pineapple.juice in with the lemon and oh my it was amaizing

Can I use coconut water to try and make the sorbet more exotic?

DivineFoodLovely:)

That's a cool idea Sushi - I bet it'll taste lovely either way. Very creative too, and I might use coconut water if I want to make this :)

question

Can I use Mango pulp instead of fresh mangos

Hi, yes that would be fine. Just check if it has been sweetened already, if so just reduce the sugar. Best wishes, BBC Good Food Team.

question

Can I replace the lime juice for lemon juice please

Hi, thanks for your question. Yes absolutely - you might only need about two-thirds of the juice from a lemon. We hope this helps. Best wishes, BBC Good Food Team.
