Continuing with the theme of gluten-free recipes featuring mint I just had to share this amazing lemon and mint sorbet recipe from Australian Gourmet Traveller website newsletter.

This tastes just as you would imagine: light and tangy, with the lingering flavour of mint.

Lemon and mint sorbet

Serves 4
Cooking Time Prep time 10 mins, cook 5 mins (plus freezing)


220 gm   (1 cup) caster sugar
2 tbsp   coarsely chopped mint leaves, plus extra leaves to serve
1   lemon, finely grated rind only, plus extra lemons to serve (optional)
½ tbsp   liquid glucose
75 ml   lemon juice

1 Combine sugar, mint, lemon rind and 125ml water in a saucepan, stir over low heat until sugar dissolves. Stir through glucose then lemon juice and strain (discard solids). Freeze in an ice-cream machine according to manufacturer’s instructions. Serve scoops of sorbet in hollowed-out lemons, if desired, and garnish with extra mint leaves.
