Steps:

• In a blender, blend all ingredients together until smooth.
• Pour the blended sorbet into a flat pan and freeze in your deep freezer for 45 minutes or more, until firm enough to scoop. My freezer is very cold, so you may need more time. Let sit at room temperature for a few minutes if too frozen.

Steps:

• Put the lemon pieces into a food processor or blender with the sugar and pulse-chop until the lemon and sugar have combined to a purée. Tip the mixture into a bowl.
• Purée the strawberries and add to the lemon mixture. Add about half the lemon juice, taste and add more if necessary - the flavour of the lemon should be intense but not overpower the strawberries.
• Pour into an ice-cream machine and churn until frozen or freeze in a suitable container. You may need to churn the mixture in batches according to the size of your ice-cream machine.

Steps:

• Hull and chop fruit, then tip them into a bowl with the sugar and lemon juice. Bring a kettle of hot water to the boil and pour over 300ml boiling water. Leave everything to macerate until cool, then blitz in a food processor until smooth. Push the purée through a sieve.
• Clear a shelf in the freezer and place a sided metal tray in to chill. Pour the mix into the tray and cover with cling film. Freeze the liquid until frozen around the edges and slushy in the middle. Use a fork to break up the ice into smaller crystals. Return the tray to the freezer. Repeat the breaking up process every half hour (at least three times) until it's completely frozen and the texture of snow. For a quicker method: freeze the mixture in an ice tray, then blitz the cubes in a food processor just before serving. The texture will be slightly slushier, but just as delicious.
