Method
- 1
Lemon first. Put the lemon juice in the food processor bowl before you cut anything.
- 2
Cut. Peel and core one apple at a time, slice it thinly straight into the bowl and toss with the juice so it does not brown.
- 3
Purée. Add the icing sugar and cold water and process, scraping down twice, until completely smooth, 2-3 min.
- 4
Churn at once. Churn straight away for 20-25 min while the purée is still pale.
- 5
Freeze. Pack into the container and freeze for 2 h. Serve with thin slices of fresh apple.
Storage
Keep covered in the freezer for up to 1 week; sorbet turns icy after that. Soften for 10 min before scooping.
