Ingredients

  • 500 g Raspberries

  • 175 g Sugar, white

  • 600 ml Water

  • 40 ml Juice, orange

  • 3 pieces Egg, egg white, fresh

  • 3 twigs Mint

Steps

  1. Wash the raspberries and blend them into a fruit puree using a hand blender. In a saucepan, combine sugar and water. Heat them slowly over low heat until the sugar completely dissolves. Bring the mixture to a boil and let it simmer for two minutes. Remove the saucepan from the heat and allow the syrup to cool.

  2. Mix the cooled syrup with the raspberry puree and orange juice. Pour the raspberry mixture through a fine sieve into a freezer-safe container and place it in the freezer for two hours. Once frozen, transfer the mixture to a larger bowl and whisk it to break up any large ice crystals.

  3. Using an electric mixer, beat the egg whites into stiff peaks. Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the raspberry ice mixture. Pour the mixture back into the freezer-safe container and return it to the freezer until the sorbet is completely firm.

  4. Half an hour before serving, place the container in the refrigerator. Scoop the sorbet into balls and serve in glasses or bowls, garnished with mint or lemon balm leaves.
