Ingredients
- 500 grams fresh strawberries
- 100 grams granulated sugar
- 120 milliliters water
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Directions
Step 1
Wash and hull the strawberries, then cut them in half.
Step 2
In a medium saucepan, combine the granulated sugar and water. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar completely dissolves to create a simple syrup. Let it cool to room temperature.
Step 3
Add the strawberries, simple syrup, and lemon juice to a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth.
Step 4
Pour the blended mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a bowl to remove seeds, pressing with a spatula to extract as much liquid as possible.
Step 5
Transfer the smooth mixture to a shallow, freezer-safe container. Cover it and freeze for about 1 hour.
Step 6
After an hour, stir the sorbet with a fork to break up any ice crystals. Repeat this process every 30 minutes for 2-3 hours until the sorbet is fully frozen and has a smooth texture.
Step 7
When ready to serve, let the sorbet sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to soften slightly. Scoop into bowls and enjoy!
