Refreshing strawberry sorbet
This homemade strawberry sorbet is a little different from other recipes. The mixture is thickened before freezing, resulting in a melt-in-the-mouth frozen treat. If you don't like using cornflour, substitute in tapioca starch.

- 450g ripe strawberries, hulled and chopped
- 100g caster sugar
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 1/2 teaspoons cornflour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons cold water
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice

wonderfully simple recipe. A delicious, smooth and very tasty sorbet. Yum! Will be making again. - 24 Jun 2011
Not overcomplicated. Simply delicious. Tripled the recipe using supermarket "ugly" strawberries. Kids can't stop munching it. - 13 Aug 2016
This recipe is OK but overcomplicated, plus I had to keep it overnight to get right consistence. My easier version involves frozen strawberries mixed with splash of swepps depending on desired consistence, and optionally splash of cherry liqueur. Made in minutes, effect the same. - 12 Aug 2016
