Vanilla yogurt ice with honeyed pink grapefruit

For the ice

200g golden caster sugar
1 vanilla pod
seeds scraped out
2 x 500g pots natural yogurt

For the honeyed pink grapefruit

3 pink grapefruit
4 tbsp clear honey
mint
leaves, to serve

Method

step 1
Place the caster sugar in a bowl, then rub in the vanilla seeds with your fingers so they’re evenly mixed. Stir in the yogurt until the sugar has dissolved. Churn the mixture in an ice-cream machine until frozen but still soft or, if you don't have a machine, pour the yogurt into a freezer-safe container and freeze for 4-6 hrs, stirring thoroughly every hr or so. Meanwhile, line a 1kg loaf tin with cling film.
step 2
Spoon the soft frozen yogurt into the tin, cover with another piece of cling film, then freeze for at least 4 hrs, until firm. Segment the grapefruit, catching the juices in a bowl – you should get about 200ml. Put the juice into a small pan with the honey, simmer for 10-15 mins until thickened and syrupy, stir in the segments, then leave to cool.
step 3
Take the yogurt ice from the freezer about 10 mins before you want to serve it. Cut into slices and serve topped with grapefruit, some of the honeyed sauce and a scattering of mint.
