Pineapple And Lime Sorbets With Pine Nut Brittle Recipes

Steps:

• Blend all ingredients in a food processor or high-speed blender until thoroughly combined.
• Pour into a rectangular loaf pan and smooth into an even layer.
• Freeze for 2 hours, or until frozen but still a little soft for scooping. (If freezing overnight, cover with a lid or plastic wrap, but let it sit out at room temperature for about 5-10 minutes before scooping.)
• Scoop into a bowl.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Place pineapple, pineapple juice, sugar, lime juice, vodka, and mint in a food processor and process until smooth.
• Pour mixture into an ice cream maker and freeze according to manufacturer's instructions, about 20 minutes. Transfer to an airtight container; put in the freezer for at least 6 hours before serving so it can firm up.

Steps:

• Peel, core and dice pineapple. In a food processor combine pineapple with 1/4 cup sugar and lemon juice and process until smooth. (This may need to be done in batches.) Add more sugar if necessary. Transfer mixture to ice cube trays or metal shallow baking pan, cover with plastic and freeze until almost frozen. In processor add frozen pineapple and process, in batches, until smooth. Transfer to plastic container and freeze, covered, until solid.

Steps:

• Put the pineapple into a blender or food processor and blitz to a purée. To make the stock syrup, put all the ingredients in a large pot with 500ml water, slowly bring to the boil and stir until the sugar has dissolved, then remove from the heat.
• Tip the pineapple purée and the lime juice into the syrup and stir well. Leave to cool, then strain and churn in an ice-cream maker following manufacturer's instructions. Place in a container and freeze. Alternatively, tip the syrup into a large tray and freeze until it starts to set, then every hour or so break up the ice with a fork. Serve the sorbet scooped into dessert glasses with a few slices of mango.

Steps:

• Spray heavy large baking sheet with vegetable oil spray. Stir sugar and water in heavy small saucepan over medium-low heat until sugar dissolves. Increase heat and boil without stirring until syrup turns deep golden, occasionally brushing down sides of pan with pastry brush dipped into water and swirling pan, about 7 minutes. Immediately pour out mixture onto prepared baking sheet, sprinkle with pine nuts.
• Working quickly and carefully (mixture is very hot and hardens fast), press tip of knife into edges of caramel sheet and gently stretch in all directions until caramel becomes thin and transparent. Cool completely. Break brittle into irregular large pieces. (Brittle can be prepared 3 days ahead. Store in airtight container at room temperature.)
